Others grow stronger the harder they work at cultivating immortality.
The harder Shen Xian works at cultivation, the more injured he gets.
An ancient, long-lost Dao Fruit of Nonaction has bound his path to immortality.
Trying to meditate and cultivate? His cultivation level drops. Trying to scheme for opportunities? His soul suffers a backlash.
All he wants is to laze about in the sun and save up spirit fruits for a snack, yet the inner demons and perilous predicaments that even the greatest prodigies cannot overcome quietly resolve themselves whenever he simply lets things take their course.
Cultivators across the land revere action as the righteous path and mock him as a cripple on the road to ruin.
Only he gradually comes to understand: all beings struggle against the Dao, bound by their obsessions. Following the Dao and embracing nonaction is the very source of the Great Dao.
This book is not only the protagonist's path of inaction, but also my insights triggered by some things. I used to be aggressive and grabby, and I tried my best, but in the end I got nothing and ended up with scars all over my body. It was only when I really let go of my obsession that I realized that after doing nothing, I do something!
