[Dark + Traditional Cultivation! The protagonist follows a twisted path—decisive, ruthless, and anything but kind. If you prefer gentle heroes, this isn’t for you.]

The so-called Immortal Path is nothing but hypocrisy—built on blood and bones.

Lu Li claws his way out of a pit of corpses, uses bones as his lantern, and walks a road only true demons dare tread.

From that moment on: killing, soul harvesting, bone refinement, devouring the heavens.

If I ascend, I shall butcher all who call themselves Immortals.

An otaku accidentally traversed while playing a dark 18 banned-cultivation galgame, and he brought this game panel called “Cthulhu Cultivation” with him…

[Reminder once again: If you enjoy brainless power fantasy and non-stop slaughter, read with caution!!!]

Gu Ming accidentally transmigrated into the cultivation world. At the start, he has endless lifespan and awakens the talent "Borrowing Life" — if he is killed, he will randomly sacrifice a close relative of his enemy to resurrect himself, and even gain one random ability from the sacrificed person.

Need a cultivation license to join a sect?

Not talented enough, so you have to pay to cultivate?

What? I don’t even qualify to pay to cultivate?

Fine! You won't let me cultivate, huh?

Then I'll just outlast everyone — while others study their way to Immortality, Gu Ming endures his way there with sheer lifespan.

Want to kill me? Go ahead. Kill me, and your whole family dies, starting with your parents. Let’s see how many times your family can afford to be sacrificed!!

...

Years later, Gu Ming’s little secret is accidentally exposed. He becomes a plague god in the eyes of all realms — wherever he goes, fear follows. People avoid him like the plague.

Especially those powerful cultivators who like flashy, explosive battles — every time they want a duel, they make sure to steer clear of Gu Ming, fearing they might accidentally kill him.

One righteous sect leader refused to believe the rumors. He found Gu Ming and arrogantly declared:

“I have no family, no ties, I stand alone. Plague God Gu Ming, come — today, I shall rid the worlds of your evil!”

In this year, Ji Jingqiu was sixteen years old.

To survive, he meditated upon the Inferno of the Burning House and planted a sacred Bodhi tree, thus embarking on the path of martial cultivation.

Many years later—

A brilliant radiance suddenly rose, illuminating endless darkness.

A towering ancient tree stood verdant and majestic, its canopy vast like an umbrella. Glazed divine light soared into the heavens, supporting a sacred land of a divine kingdom, spanning across countless eons, illuminating the Three Realms and the Ten Directions.

On this day,

All those who practiced martial arts looked up,

like mayflies gazing upon the sky.

…

"Within me grows a Bodhi tree—personally planted when I first set foot on the martial path. Now, it stands vast and towering."

"I have witnessed all that exists in this world—there is none like me."

"That year, I pored over the annals of history. There were no years recorded in those texts, yet as I read them over and over, I saw eight words—

‘The storms of the world, all rise from our generation.’"

…

—Excerpt from The Martial Sun of This Era: The Autobiography of Ji Jingqiu.

In this world, there are strange gods above, demons and monsters feeding all living things, and there are chaos in the court, chaos in the warrior world, famine, war, plague, animal disasters, and human disasters below, which hinder survival everywhere.

Fortunately, as a member of the clan, Chen Nuo can barely survive.

Only when the two golden fingers arrived, the life points were added and the innate magical power: immortality awakened, he realized that he might be able to live better.

Blood is of the same origin, the head of the clan, strengthen the bloodline, gain life points, and change the fate against the will of heaven.

Immortality, change at the age of ten, seventy-two earthly evil, change at the age of a hundred, three-six heavenly gang.

In this cruel and chaotic world, as an immortal, Chen Nuo understands that he needs to make steady progress. Only by living long enough and the clan is more powerful, can he live more safely and enjoyably.

Until he is honored as the ancestor, the sea dries up and the rocks crumble, and he lives as long as the heaven and the earth!
