Immortality and cultivation begin at age forty, starting with Foundation Establishment.

In the world of cultivation, Chen An, a man of ordinary means, finds himself transmigrated into a new reality. At the age of forty, he sets out on the path of immortality by joining the Xuan Yang Sect. With an unwavering Dao heart, Chen An dedicates himself to cultivating the art of killing and accumulating resources. He cleverly exploits the opportunities presented by rogue cultivators, enriching himself through their plundered assets. To overcome the challenges of foundation building, Chen An employs a unique approach, leveraging the peak primordial yin energy to break through bottlenecks and increase the probability of foundation establishment. Should his talent for alchemy prove lacking, he trains a skilled maidservant, providing her with the necessary resources to aid in his cultivation. By this method, Chen An obtains cheap cultivation pills, paving the way for his ascension to the Foundation Establishment realm. His decisive nature and intelligent approach to killing ultimately lead him to emerge victorious in the sect's trial grounds, securing the Foundation Establishment Elixir and propelling him onto the path of cultivation.
