The Abandoned Heir of the Immortal Sect

Abandoned by his cultivation clan, his powers destroyed by enemies, and with nowhere left to turn, Shang Hao—once a scion of a cultivator family—rescues two strangers and is transformed. He gains a special ability and glimpses a path to the heavens. He discovers that repairing his damaged dantian is tied to doing good deeds: acts of kindness accumulate benevolent energy, which in turn nurtures his cultivation. Starting with poverty alleviation in a remote mountain village—contracting barren hills, leading villagers to prosperity, and running a business in monkey wine and spiritual herbs—he gradually repairs his dantian, draws qi into his body, and tempers his physique. He then returns to the world of cultivation, becoming embroiled in clan feuds and sect rivalries, refining pills, competing in tournaments, and exploring hidden realms. From the mortal world he ascends to ever higher planes of cultivation, ultimately taking part in sect power struggles and even interstellar warfare. Blending urban life with cultivation progression, the novel drives its protagonist's growth through the unique mechanic of benevolent energy. With its brisk pacing and strong sense of wish fulfillment, it is a quintessential male-oriented cultivation power fantasy.
