A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: I Turned the Discarded Pill Yard into a Blessed Cave Haven

On the day his spiritual roots were tested, Chen Luo was seventeen years old and had none. Eighty-three years later, he became a lightning-attributed Heavenly Spiritual Root, but had only six months left to live. Everyone: The most vicious joke Heaven could play. But who could have guessed the mysterious gourd he carried with him had incredible powers! Low-grade Qi Refining Pill → Supreme-grade four-veined pill (1000% more effective) Discarded Foundation Establishment Pill → Supreme-grade five-veined pill (99% success rate) Pill toxins and miasma → Pure spiritual energy (absorbed directly) What everyone else sees as a dump is a treasure trove to him! Failed pills? I’ll take them. A forbidden zone covered in pill toxins? I’ll live there. Sect: We’ll give you a worthless-pill courtyard to retire in. Chen Luo: (smiles) Just what I wanted. Six months later Ninth level of Qi Refining! One year later Foundation established! Three years later At the inner sect tournament, a white-haired old man sweeps the field. Everyone: ??? Weren’t you supposed to be dying? The genius immortal maiden who abandoned him eighty-three years ago comes back: “Junior Brother, I was blind back then...” Chen Luo: (sneers) Too late. This old man is busy becoming an immortal now.
