Life Player in an Otome Game

Su Tangxing was a dedicated player of the otome game "Die Without Love," which combined immortal cultivation themes with life-simulation mechanics. She preferred farming, building, and raising spirit beasts over pursuing the game's romantic storylines. When the developers announced the removal of life-simulation content in an update, she filed a complaint and was offered a "special channel" that allowed her to transmigrate into the game world. Upon accepting, she found herself physically present in the cultivation world, retaining her max-level skills and affinity but starting at level zero with her inventory locked.

At the Spirit Root testing site, Su Tangxing shattered the measuring jade due to her Omni-Spiritual Root, an unprecedented occurrence. Her non-blood-related older brother, Mu Liuyun, also displayed exceptional talent with a Thunder Spirit Root and the Moon-Hiding Physique. While Mu Liuyun was recruited by the prestigious Taiyi Sword Sect, Su Tangxing chose the Leisurely Immortal Abode, a sect focused on beast taming that had previously been overlooked by most players. Her choice was influenced by her high affinity with spirit beasts, which caused the sect's guardian parrot and other beasts to immediately accept her.

Upon arriving at the Leisurely Immortal Abode, Su Tangxing attracted the attention of various sects due to her rare talent. However, she remained steadfast in her decision. During her entry trial, she triggered a massive phenomenon at the Gate of Ten Thousand Beasts, causing dragons and phoenixes to appear, which signaled her extraordinary connection to spirit beasts. This event drew the attention of the sect's hidden founders, Ancestors Tian Zhao and Tiankuang, who had been in seclusion for a long time.

Lin Xiangqing, a sickly senior disciple with a damaged spiritual platform, welcomed Su Tangxing and introduced her to the sect's daily life. He was known for his gentle nature and played a significant role in the original game's storyline. Su Tangxing also encountered Rong Ye, a disciple from Tongqi Mountain who was serving a Calamity Curse imposed by Ancestor Tiankuang for damaging a statue. Rong Ye was initially hostile and resentful toward Su Tangxing due to his cursed state.

The two ancestors revealed themselves to Su Tangxing. Tiankuang, who had a fox head and human body, decided to take her as his personal disciple, bypassing the usual hierarchy. This made Su Tangxing the senior figure to even the Sect Leader and elders, earning her the title of "Great-Grandmaster" among the disciples. Tiankuang gifted her a top-grade celestial puppet and access to the sect's treasure vault, while also allowing her to choose her residence.

Su Tangxing settled on a mountain slope near a deep pool, where she began planning her new life. She intended to build a home, plant trees, and raise livestock, utilizing her mastery of various crafting skills. She tasked Rong Ye with reviewing her courtyard blueprint as part of her interaction with him, though he remained reluctant. The story follows her adaptation to this new reality, where she must navigate social dynamics and cultivation while pursuing her preferred lifestyle of peace and domesticity.

The central conflict arises from the game's requirement that Su Tangxing achieve max-level affection with all male characters to return home. However, she has no interest in romance and intends to stay in the cultivation world indefinitely. This creates a tension between the system's objectives and her personal desires. Additionally, the political landscape of the sect is complicated by the presence of Rong Ye, whose curse she holds the power to lift, and the mysterious fate of Lin Xiangqing, who requires Phoenix Blood to survive.

As Su Tangxing establishes herself, she interacts with various spirit beasts and disciples, including the water buffalo that provides her with milk. Her unique position as the Fox Master's disciple grants her authority and resources, but also isolates her from the standard sect structure. The narrative explores her daily activities, her relationships with the game's characters, and her determination to live on her own terms despite the system's constraints.

The story progresses with Su Tangxing building her home and integrating into the sect's life. She maintains a calm and detached demeanor, focusing on her hobbies rather than the romantic entanglements typical of the genre. The presence of the two ancestors adds an element of mystery, as they observe her actions and hint at future developments related to the sect's history and the cultivation world's broader conflicts.

Ultimately, Su Tangxing's journey is one of self-determination in a virtual world that has become real. She balances her desire for a quiet life with the responsibilities and opportunities presented by her unique status. The narrative sets the stage for her interactions with the male leads, not through romance, but through the dynamics of power, friendship, and shared experiences in the cultivation sect.
