Chen Muyang was a scientist who spent his life coaxing crops from soil everyone else called hopeless. When he dies alone in a greenhouse , he expects nothing more. Instead, he wakes up in a cultivation world he doesn't understand, wearing the body of a sickly, disowned boy - cast out by his family, shunned by his village, and bound to a power system no one has ever heard of: a Proficiency Panel that grows stronger not through killing, but through labor.
While every other cultivator claws toward power with blood and blades, Chen Muyang kneels in dead dirt and refuses to accept that it has to stay dead.
Xue Lingfeng, a Frost Blade Sect prodigy exiled for refusing to become a murderer, carrying wounds that should have killed him and a sword intent that's quietly stopped growing. Nursed back to life on food grown in soil that shouldn't be able to hold Qi at all, he stays. First out of debt. Then out of choice. Then because somewhere between mended fences and shared meals, a barren field became the first place either of them has ever called home.From a single barren plot to the God Realm itself, this is the story of a man who never learned to fight - and built an empire anyway, one harvest at a time, with the one person willing to guard it beside him.
A slow-burn BL xianxia of found family, quiet defiance, and love that grows the same way everything worth having does.
