Wu Jian comes from a small clan eking out a living in the countryside. Despite being the clan heir, he is bullied for being cowardly and weak. In a world where the strength of a person's cultivation determines their lot in life, weakness is not allowed, and those who possess it are often stamped out.

But Wu Jian doesn't want to remain weak. He doesn't want to stay a coward. He wants to be strong.

Witness the rise of one young man who, with the help of his childhood friend, will face adversity, forge new bonds of love and friendship, and gain the strength needed to protect his loved ones and find meaning in his life.

It all begins here.

[Disclaimer: This is an addictive, slow-burn harem story about a hard-working protagonist who wants to get stronger for the people he loves. If you're sick and tired of reading the same old cultivation stories about OP MCs who never work for their power, this novel will give you new life. You will laugh, cry, scream kawaii, and probably curse the author every so often. Prepare for everything from slice-of-life to action/adventure to epic battles and political machinations and everything in-between!]

Severing Time & Space

Zhou Lihua took several slow, calming breaths as she tried to center herself. The stifling silence as every person in the arena waited on baited breath was getting to her. It felt like this moment was stretching on forever, leaving her with nothing but worries and doubts. 


How long does it take to sound a simple gong? Is Sao Yong doing this on purpose? Is he trying to make us so nervous that we can’t think straight and will mess up? 


Being an alchemist often meant working under high stress since there was always a good chance of something going wrong. You could fail to refine a pill. Your cauldron could blow up. Zhou Lihua once heard a story about a man who tried creating a pill beyond his level and had his soul sucked out of his body as a result. Every alchemist knew that studying the Dao of Alchemy was the same as walking alongside death.
