The Farming Botanist
Tomás Huinca was not a hero. He was an agricultural engineer from southern Chile, a patient man who spent more time observing the earth than talking to people. When a truck hit him on a rural road, his story should have ended.
But he woke up somewhere else.
A xianxia cultivation world, where the powerful ascend to the heavens by breaking their martial limits, where spiritual beasts sow terror, and where ancient elixirs grant immortality. A world where Tomás does not understand the language, does not know the customs, and, to his misfortune, has almost no martial talent.
His only ability is a deep connection with the flora of this new world. And an empty notebook that an old scholar gave him out of pity.
While cultivators fight for power and sects dispute resources, Tomás sits on the earth, observes the plants that no one studies, and begins to write. Why does a spiritual herb glow under the full moon? What microorganisms live in the roots of a sacred tree? Can science explain what cultivation calls "miracles"?
Without a sword, without martial techniques, without ambition for power, a man from the end of the world sets out to do something absurd: to understand. To document. To classify. To write the first botanical encyclopedia of a universe that only believes in strength.
But in a world where knowledge is heresy and patience is mistaken for weakness, even the simplest act of observing can become a challenge to the gods.
This is the story of his daily life. Of his small discoveries. Of his slow battles against plagues, droughts, and millenary dogmas. Of how a man without power changed a world, one plant at a time.
