root-book

Lin Li has spent his life in the mountains, yearning to become a cultivator. When the chance finally comes, he learns why the path to power is said to be like reaching for the heavens. Lacking talent, luck, and resources, he has only one choice—fight, claw, and seize every opportunity to survive. But when a fateful mission throws him into a den of wolves, he is forced to make a desperate move. What he thought was a last resort turns out to be the greatest blessing under the heavens. When the heavens reveal their secret and offer him a path, there’s only one thing to do—seize it with everything he has and rise to the top. Or Lin Li found a treasure and now he''''s ready to upend the entire world. [Really, not great at writing a synopsis but this basically conveys the idea] What to expect - - No Harem - Fast Paced - POV focused on MC with only occasional shifts - MC isn''''t naive, but he has a few loose screws which you might notice in some of his interactions (otherwise he''''s super smart) - Morally gray MC who isn''''t an edge-lord - A vast, expansive verse that goes beyond the concept of even Multiverse - A layered cultivation system that matches its vastness Cover art is AI generated and edited by my self; it will be updated after I have saved enough to commission an art work.
