Just as there are riches beyond riches, mountains beyond mountains, and heavens beyond heavens, so too are there daos beyond daos. Some daos are Iron Rank, some are Bronze Rank, some Silver. A rare few are even Gold. To ascend in power, one must refine their dao to a higher rank. This is the pursuit of every cultivator. But Li Wei has been cast out of that pursuit. Once a proud disciple, he is now a cripple, reduced to a menial servant of his sect. The same disciples who once called him "Elder Brother" now greet him with disgust, mockery, and pity. Until Li Wei discovers the Heavenly Dao Lotus, a legendary flower said to be able to mend what is broken. After consuming the lotus, he awakens a terrifying ability, but chooses to hide his mended cultivation from his sect. Unfortunately for him, he has already drawn the attention of a ruthless princess from the immortal realm, one who intends to use him to elevate her own dao. WHAT TO EXPECT: 1. Weak to strong progression 2. Lots of scheming characters 3. Slowburn Note: some tags are there to give room for growth and will not be immediately apparent
