"Man is the spirit of all things, and gu are the refined fragments of the Great Dao. The ambition which blooms with the spring's morning breeze withers at the call of autumn's night. The accumulation of five hundred years - triumphs and failures - will be naught but ash with dawn's first light. The rising of the sun bathes the mountains in golden flame, but 'tis sunset upon the demon's time. " The demonic overlord, Fang Yuan, is cornered by his enemies after word gets out that he refined the Spring Autumn Cicada - a gu worm rumored to be capable of having a chance at sending one back in time but demands a terrifying price in return - the user's entire existence! With no hope of escape, in desperation, Fang Yuan uses the Spring Autumn Cicada which miraculously lives up to its name and sends him back in time. And now, he's back in Gu Yue Village as a fifteen-year-old ready to use his knowledge of the future to conquer the world... but there's something wrong. Something is quite different this time around. What's with this new notification that keeps popping up in his view? It calls itself 'The Goody Two-Shoes System.' It also starts giving him quests to complete. "Help Fang Zheng gain his confidence back!" - get a Green Copper Relic Gu! "Help your friends refine their gu worms!" - have your aptitude raised by 2%! All of these rewards and quests before him, why are they trying to convert this demonic overlord to the path of righteousness? And aren't some of these quests kind of... sus? Why does marrying Bai Ning Bing give him an immortal gu? Whatever, anything for benefits! [There will eventually be an in-universe explanation for the existence of the Goody Two-Shoes System within the story. Additionally, as the story progresses, the Goody Two-Shoes System will slowly decrease in importance particularly past 350 chapters or so.] This is a fanfiction based on Gu Zhen Re's work 'Reverend Insanity' known in Chinese as 蛊真人 or 'Gu Taoist Master'.

Su Lin's life changes forever after a fateful encounter with Feng Yin. After losing Uncle Hong and being separated from everything he once knew, Su Lin arrives in the unfamiliar State of Han. With no knowledge of the immortal world and no one to rely on, he hides his identity and lives quietly as a mute farm worker while waiting for an opportunity to enter the world of cultivation. That opportunity finally arrives when the Heaven's Dao Sect begins its five-year disciple selection. Su Lin travels to the sect with a young man named Chen Hao, hoping that becoming an immortal will give him the strength to avenge Uncle Hong. But the path he imagined is far more difficult than he expected. The first trial tests his willpower. Despite enduring tremendous pressure and pushing himself to the limit, an unexpected incident causes Su Lin to lose consciousness. By the time he awakens, the second test has already ended. Then comes the final blow. When his cultivation talent is examined, Elder Sima Tai declares that Su Lin possesses no talent for cultivation. Once again, Su Lin's hope is shattered. Humiliated and rejected, he refuses to surrender. Desperate to find a way into the world of cultivation, he risks everything to obtain a cultivation manual from the Heaven's Dao Sect's library.

But something strange happens. The ring left behind by Uncle Hong suddenly reacts. And from the darkness of the cave appears a mysterious young man. His name is Shan Yan.

For now, he has only one goal: Become strong enough to avenge Uncle Hong. But before Su Lin can reach that goal, he must first take his very first step onto the path of cultivation. This is the beginning of Su Lin's journey.

###This is a slow pacing novel! [CONTENT WARNING: This work is intended for an adult audience (18+). Contains explicit sexual content, visceral violence and dark psychological dynamics.] MAIN TAGS: #DualCultivation #Smut #Yandere #Harem #OverpoweredProtagonist #Violence #ObsessiveRomance #WorldBuilding SYNOPSIS: The universe is not a cradle for enlightenment; it is a cosmic slaughterhouse. Immortality is no divine gift, but a ruthless theft against the laws of entropy. In an ecosystem where ancient sects operate as meat grinders and hypocritical heroes rule atop mountains of bones, Zhì Yuǎn is an anomaly. He does not cultivate the Dao to harmonize with the world—he cultivates to devour it. Carrying an insatiable Singularity within his chest, his mere existence warps the natural balance, drawing the scrutiny and fury of the heavens. To feed this inner abyss and force his ascension through the Three Thousand Worlds, he does not walk alone. By his side are his wives—cultivation partners and accomplices in his boundless ambition. They are not the fragile trophies so typical of this world, but the very foundation of his power, as pragmatic and dangerous as the man they follow. Together, they are not heroes seeking justice. There is no room for false morals, mercy toward enemies, or wasting time on the vanity of arrogant young masters. Transcendence demands resources, and they will take them all. The heavens may try to crush the anomaly, but Zhì Yuǎn sees only one thing in the Tribulations: more fuel for his ascension.
