About

In their quest to reach the pinnacle of cultivation, geniuses forge their path with the belief that the path of slaughter is the only one that can lead them there. But for some strange reason, they always encounter hidden masters who, without ever having left their sects or fought physically, surpass them in cultivation, having reached higher realms than their own. The protagonist of this story, an archaeologist specializing in dead languages, dies after finding a door that should not have existed and is reborn in another world, where, due to a very bad decision she does not remember making, she is denied any possibility of taking the most orthodox and fastest path of slaughter, so she has no choice but to take things slowly and follow the path of all those hidden masters, aided by her former talent for understanding and deciphering various languages. What to expect: -Strange as it may seem, this story is a Slice of Life cultivation novel, so things move slowly, don't expect a speed run of cultivation. -Due to the protagonist's special circumstances, don't expect a lot of combat or fighting. And when there is, because it's still a cultivation world, it will always be brief and not too drawn out. -The protagonist knows nothing about cultivation and isn't a regular reader of web novels, as is usually the case, so she starts from scratch and has to figure everything out little by little. -The protagonist doesn't forget her old life or everything she knows about it in the first dozen episodes either, which—combined with the previous point—means she often compares what she discovers and learns in this new world with the things she knows from her old one. -An attempt to make the characters interesting and with their own personalities. Only time will tell if I succeed or not. -A unique and original cultivation system, don't expect Qi Realms and Golden Cores. Additional notices: -This is the English version translated by a professional AI. Unfortunately, my English is not good enough to write directly in it, so I am adding the AI-generated content label. I am also publishing the original Spanish version. -I used a translator up until Chapter 55. Starting with chapter 56, I began using a different one, which most readers say is much better. -I'm also retranslating the first few chapters using the new translator. The chapters that have already been retranslated are marked with an (R) in the title. -The cover is also AI-generated while I find an artist to create an original one for me.
