A fatal flaw is his only path to power.
For two years, Nathan has been a failure. Cursed with an abysmal energy absorption rate, he’s the weakest disciple in the Verdant Spire Sect and faces certain expulsion. His dream of returning to Earth to save his ailing mother is about to die. He’s a talentless cultivator at the bottom of the food chain, with one day left to change his fate.
Just when all hope is lost, his long-dormant System awakens, granting him a bizarre and unique power: The Passive Paradigm.
His flaw is no longer a curse. It’s the key to a new kind of advancement where endurance is strength, and survival itself is a source of explosive growth. By discovering loopholes and turning the rules of cultivation on their head, Nathan forges a new path. But this power comes at a cost, forcing him into a brutal tournament where he is the underdog and a deadly forest that wants him dead.
Experience an Epic Cultivation LitRPG where the grind pays double. Perfect for fans of Cradle and He Who Fights with Monsters, this adventure features a clever underdog, a unique skill system, brutal martial arts combat, and a progression from outcast to alpha.
