Jin Dan Shi Hengxing Ni Guan Zhe Jiao Xiu Xian?

While other cultivators proudly parade their spirit beasts or pampered lapdogs, Qi Yuan walks a kitchen knife. To his fellow sect members, he appears utterly deranged, yet they remain blind to the truth: his unique eyes allow him to perceive hidden messages concealed within ordinary objects. This extraordinary vision is his greatest asset in a world where survival depends on secrets others cannot see. Transmigrated into a perilous realm of cultivation, Qi Yuan uncovers a horrifying revelation about the path to power. Every conventional foundation-building technique is a trap, designed to transform unwitting practitioners into mere sustenance for a mysterious, overarching entity. Realizing that following the established methods would seal his doom, he refuses to become another sacrifice in a rigged system. Determined to forge his own destiny, Qi Yuan abandons orthodox teachings entirely. He painstakingly develops his own cultivation techniques and scours the world for spiritual artifacts, all with a singular, unprecedented ambition. Rather than building a standard mortal foundation, he sets out to construct the very foundation of the Heavenly Dao itself, turning the rules of this treacherous world against its hidden masters.
