Seeking Immortality: Chaos

Lin Chen, an orphan from Luoxia Town, was judged to have a waste spirit root during his spiritual root test. For three years, he trained hard but couldn't attract a single wisp of spiritual energy. He endured the townspeople's mockery for three years and dreamed of cultivation for three years. Then, the gray-white bead he had carried since childhood quietly cracked open one evening when he was most unwilling to give up. Inside the crack lived the remnant soul of an ancient great power—lazy, sharp-tongued, and prone to sleeping, but always surprisingly reliable at critical moments. Sealed within the bead was the legendary Chaos Spirit Root, unseen for ten thousand years—capable of fusing all attributes, cultivating any technique, with no restrictions. Thus, the waste spirit root youth entered Qingyun Sect, starting from the lowest level of the chores hall and climbing step by step. No background, no backing, no connections. All he had was an unyielding heart, a foul-mouthed yet genuinely protective old man, a childhood friend, and a cold-as-ice girl who lent him a book one morning. The path was slow and arduous, but every step was solid. Seeking immortality, regardless of origin.
