[Ordinary Mortal Path] Chen Fan was born with a mixed Five Elements spiritual root and naturally withered meridians. His cultivation has remained at the first level of Qi Refining, leaving him at the very bottom of the cultivation world. In the eyes of the servant disciples, he is a worthless “pill dreg” whom anyone can bully. To the stewards, he is a furnace for harvesting yang to replenish yin, someone they can execute at will.
During one such act of cultivation, Chen Fan is framed and thrown into the Ten Thousand Bones Ravine. He thinks he is as good as dead, but unexpectedly obtains a fragment of bone and awakens the Devouring Dao Rune.
From then on, he can devour anything.
The useless pills, medicinal dregs, and broken magical artifacts that others disdain can all be devoured and refined by him into the purest essence. This not only repairs his withered meridians, but also directly increases his cultivation.
By devouring corpses and bones, he can also gain insight into how their owners cultivated while alive.
With the Devouring Dao Rune, Chen Fan's cultivation advances by leaps and bounds, and he sets foot on the path to immortality.
He will grow stronger, become an immortal, and make everyone who ever bullied him pay!
