Lin Chen transmigrates to a world of immortal cultivation and awakens the universally reviled Ashen-Death Dao Seed, a worthless one.
His Dao Seed withers and dies, his path to immortality is cut off, he cannot absorb spiritual energy, and he is doomed to stagnate for the rest of his life.
His fellow disciples mock him, the elders despise him, and the chosen ones trample him underfoot.
After three years, he has reached only the first layer of Qi Guiding. The entire Azure Profound Sect declares him a hopeless immortal and a useless waste for all eternity!
In the end, he is stripped of his disciple status and demoted to a sweeping servant, left to suffer abuse and be crushed by anyone who pleases.
At the brink of despair, Lin Chen awakens the one and only Withered Wood Buries Immortals Dao Seed in all the ages!
The world says: “What withers must die, what decays must perish, and the worthless can never become immortal!”
But his path defies all expectations: from utter withering, he brings forth immortality; from utter decay, he reaches the heavens; from utter worthlessness, he overturns fate!
Others fight over the chosen ones’ fortunes, supreme spirit roots, and peerless techniques.
He alone devours the world’s discarded energy, broken Dao foundations, withered fortunes, and unwanted scrap treasures and remnants of techniques!
Others cultivate in favorable conditions, cautious with every step.
The more they suppress him, the stronger he grows; the more desperate his situation, the more breakthroughs he makes; the more ruin surrounds him, the more he ascends to godhood!
The chosen ones who once trampled him become withered dust beneath his feet.
The sect that once cast him out can only gaze up at his defiant immortal radiance.
Everyone else follows the path of immortality by obeying Heaven.
But I, Lin Chen!
With rotten wood, I forge immortal bones; with a worthless body, I strike down the heavens!
I wither every technique and defy the tide to become a supreme being!
