In a world where cultivating immortality comes at a price, every technique, every pill, and every step forward costs money. Spiritual roots? Bought. Training halls? Rented. Even basic guidance — paid in full. Those who cannot afford it borrow… and those who cannot repay have their very life force taken to settle the debt.
Zhang Yu, an ordinary young man from our world, suddenly finds himself transmigrated into the body of a penniless student in Kunxu City — burdened not just with a new life, but with a mountain of debt amounting to over fifty thousand spirit stones, due in just thirty days. With no wealthy family backing him, no powerful connections, and barely enough coins to buy a meal, he should be doomed.
But something ancient and quiet stirs within his chest — a pure, golden spiritual flame that asks for nothing and costs nothing at all.
While others buy their way to power, Zhang Yu must grow strong through steady effort, sharp wits, and a mysterious power no one else understands. He will work, he will endure, and he will prove that you do not need wealth to walk the immortal path.
In a world that says money makes the immortal — what happens when you have nothing at all?
