Enlightenment Needn’t Root in Flesh

Enlightenment Needn’t Root in Flesh

by Karmic Acumen

AdventureCraftingCultivationDramaFantasy
Shadow rank ~#2394 in Drama↓8

Xianxia is terrible to live in, but this one’s been getting even worse since I got reincarnated here. Without spirit roots. Or a cheat. Fortunately, enlightened self-interest never fails to resonate with people who chafe under pyramid schemes, and some modern inventions can finance my little family’s livelihood while I make myself an alternate path to superpowers.
