In the world of cultivation, talent is everything. For Lu Chen, it was his greatest failure. After a lifetime of playing high-stakes strategy games on Earth, Lu Chen wakes up as the Sect Leader of the Coiling Dragon Sect. On the surface, it’s a prestigious title. In reality, the sect is a crumbling ruin, his disciples are mediocre at best, and he is a "Middling Master" stuck at the Foundation Establishment stage with zero hope of breakthrough. But as his starting point threatens to end his new life before it could even begin, Lu Chen discovers his transmigration came with [Truth Seeker's Gaze]. With a single glance, the world changes. The "trash" cultivation manuals in his library are actually flawed masterpieces. The "useless" spirit stones in the garden are hidden gems. And the mortal servant who helps in the kitchens? To the world, she is a girl with no spiritual roots. To Lu Chen’s eyes, she is a veritable monster. [Name: Ling'er][Hidden Talent 1: Dormant True Dragon Bloodline (SS)][Hidden Talent 2: Sacred Cosmic Bone (SSS)][Status: Undiscovered. Current Fate: Death by Overwork in 3 years.] Either one of these talents would guarantee a future among the Nascent Soul old monsters roaming the Lower Realm. But together? She would become a threat that even the Upper Realm had no answer for. While other Sect Leaders chase after "genius" disciples with B-grade roots, Lu Chen begins his "Trash Collection." He doesn't need to be the strongest cultivator in the world; he just needs to be the one holding the leashes of the monsters he's about to unleash. "You call them trash? In my eyes, they are the Sovereigns of the next Era!" 2-3k word length chapters expected 4x a week, Mon-Tues-Thurs-Fri. Writathon may increase the output!
