Reverend Insanity
The story
Its world cultivates by refining Gu, living essences that can heal, strengthen or poison, and its protagonist is a man who goes back in time carrying five hundred years of knowledge. He wakes in his own younger body with no interest in being good. He wants power and longevity, and he pursues them with patience and very few scruples. Most cultivation stories ask you to cheer for a hero; this one asks you to watch a villain think.
