[Transmigration] [Unconventional Xianxia] [Expect the Unexpected] [Comedy] [Slow-Burn Power Fantasy]
Others cultivate immortality by climbing the nine-rank ladder, one step at a time, each step opening a new world.
Li Jingyi transmigrates into another world as a refugee. By passing himself off as a "Sword Immortal's Successor," he manages to con his way into free food and lodging at a prince's mansion.
Then the sharp-tongued old book, tens of thousands of years old, inside his dantian finally speaks up:
"The Lesser Yan Sword Art costs three hundred taels. Buy on credit and pay interest. Pay upfront and get ten percent off."
Only then does he realize: while everyone else climbs the ladder to cultivate, he has the power to pull it out from under them.
But his lies keep growing: his name is on the assassins' hit list, the imperial court has its eye on him, and even the girls are joining in.
When the entire continent is a chessboard laid out by others, he alone is the black piece no one saw coming.
"Cultivate immortality? Others climb the nine-rank ladder. I flip the whole table!"
