Fields of Fate: The Soil Sage of Mudvale

Cultivation? Nah, I farm now.



After getting beaten half to death by some smug inner sect disciple (who probably moisturizes with dragon oil and pisses lightning), Shen does what every sensible cultivator should do when life falls apart:



He runs away.



No revenge arc. No secret bloodline awakening. Just a half-dead guy limping into the middle of nowhere with a dream: to not die.



Welcome to Mudvale — a spiritual wasteland where crops don’t grow, the soil's deader than his social life, and the only thing breathing is the wind (and maybe a sentient weed or two).



But then he finds a fox cub.

With two tails.

And attitude.

Also, there’s a System. It’s quiet, mysterious, and pops up during dreams like a cryptic therapist with a to-do list.



Can Shen turn a dead field into a spiritual paradise?

Can he figure out why his new pet might be smarter than him?

And can he, for once, just have a peaceful bath without triggering a cultivation breakthrough?



Find out in Fields of Fate — the slice-of-life cultivation novel where the protagonist actually stops to smell the spiritual herbs.
