In the Eastern Desolation, cultivators tend to mature early and become self-reliant.

Before joining the Shenmu Sect, Luo Yixuan had interned at her family's shop in the market. It was a bookstore that mainly sold books about the customs and traditions of the cultivation world and introductions to the various cultivation forces in different countries. Of course, it also had a few common cultivation techniques, arts, and spells.

This Returning to Origin secret technique was brought in by a destitute non-factional cultivator who wanted to exchange it for some spirit stones.

Luo Yixuan happened to be on duty at the time. After reading it, she found it quite good, so she used five spirit stones she had saved up to buy it. She also made the destitute cultivator swear an oath to his Dao heart not to sell it to anyone else.
