Eternal Life Begins at Jishitang

A mortal path, no golden finger. A youth idles away his days at Jishitang, until one day he is accidentally embroiled in a cultivator dispute and becomes a disciple of the Crimson Python Sect, thus stepping into the vast world of immortal cultivation. Jishitang is merely his mortal starting point; thereafter, he leaves the confines of the medicine hall behind, seeking out immortal mountains and secret realms, diligently cultivating the Great Dao, breaking free from the shackles of mortal lifespan, and venturing alone through the myriad heavens, treading a long and arduous path toward eternal life. — Description from novelcodex.org
