Trash Spirit Roots? I Trade One Spirit Stone for a Year of Cultivation

Transmigrating into a world of cultivation, Lin Chen discovers that he was born with five-element waste spirit roots—aptitude universally dismissed as worthless. Just as his path forward seems to reach a dead end, he awakens a Universal Exchange System that turns his fortunes completely around. Where an ordinary cultivator might refine a single spirit stone over three days of training, Lin Chen can exchange that same stone for a full year's worth of cultivation. Then he learns the shocking truth: five-element spirit roots are not trash at all—they are the legendary Supreme Dao spirit roots. From that moment on, he begins exchanging like a man possessed. "Exchange one thousand years of cultivation time for the Fireball Technique!" Boom! The humble Fireball Technique is instantly reborn as Meteor Fire Rain. "Exchange ten thousand years of cultivation time for the Basic Body Tempering Art!" Rumble! His body tempers into an indestructible diamond physique... Armed with supposedly "waste" spirit roots, Lin Chen routinely crushes every genius and prodigy who stands in his way. And when he finally stands at the very peak, the entire world has only one respectful way to address him: "Brother Chen!"
