A Journey Unwanted

In a quiet riverside village far from the world of swords and sects, Ren Wei, a humble fisherman and widowed father of twins, lives a peaceful life casting lines and mending nets. But when he reels in a strange, Black Scale Carp, everything changes. A mysterious system awakens within him — one that grants cultivation not through battle or bloodline, but through the fish he catches. Each unique catch grants him a skill, a trait, or a glimpse into the hidden Dao. Bound by love for his children and no ambition for fame or power, Ren Wei walks a path all his own — fishing through spiritual rivers, forgotten lakes, and heavenly streams, growing stronger with every tug of the line. He doesn’t seek to conquer. He only casts. But someday, all of Heaven will tremble at the sound of his reel. Author's note:- This will be a little unique and diverse from the usual cultivation story. Instead of children searching for their parent, the parent will be the one doing it. So, try reading the first chapter. Maybe you will like it? Each Chapter: More than 1500 words.

"Battling young masters for some treasures in mysterious caves? No, thank you. What's so special about a ring containing an old sage's trapped soul? I'll just toss it away. Becoming a direct disciple of some big expert with many enemies? Count me out. I'll flip the bird to the pointless struggle in prestigious sects that only attract calamity. What I have here, this opportunity I've seized, is plenty for me. I'll choose safe and steady methods of progress, even if they're slow. After all, I'm just a simple farmer seeking peace through cultivation. I'll rely on myself to pave the way." - Aksai Everwood (Chapter 7) ============ Aksai Everwood was a terminally ill man in his past life who signed up for one last experiment and accidentally made history by merging his mind with an AI.

Spirit farming here means dealing with dangerous cultivation, chaotic realms, and the occasional reality-bending headache. Armed with neural tech, an enchanted farm that grows mystical resources, and the ability to travel between worlds, Aksai skips the usual sect life to blaze his own trail. From druidic powers to martial arts and body cultivation, he’s on a path to conquer many realms. ============ Additional Tags: #druid #bloodlines #Martialarts #worldhopping #artificialintelligence #coldmc #battlenovel #calculatingmc #villain #farming #spiritcultivation #mindcultivation #bodycultivation #worldhopping #rpgelements #low-keymc #sliceoflife #nonarrogantmc

These creatures are connected to the existence of the Chao's being, granting them strength and power beyond anything they could have achieved on their own.
