An Unorthodox Guide to Surviving in the Immortal Realm

Qi Xiaobao, Qingyun Sect's famous good-for-nothing, has spent five years cultivating and is still stuck at the first level of Qi Refining. His daily duties include sweeping the back mountain, dodging the "air raids" of the sect's cranes, and copying apology letters as punishment from the sect leader. Then one day, he pulls a rusty dung-stirring stick out of a forbidden area. The stick suddenly transforms into the "Myriad Arts Compendium," complete with the spirit of an "improper immortal" who loves telling terrible jokes.

From then on, the cultivation world takes a bizarre turn:

• A magic brush that does homework by itself writes apology letters that publicly roast the sect leader's waistline.

• A Foundation-Building Pill called "Smile and You'll Go Mad in Half a Step" makes opponents laugh so hard on the dueling platform that they break into square dancing.

• One blast from a stinky tofu bomb sends a hundred thousand demon soldiers retching and shouting, "This stinks worse than the Demon Lord's feet!"

The Demon Lord is at his wit's end:

His carefully arranged soul-devouring formation is broken by a back scratcher.

The bewitching saintess he sent out is exposed by a truth-revealing mirror, which shows three hundred pounds of embarrassing history.

Even the ultimate inner demon is infected by meme talismans and turned into a hopeless romantic...

When Qi Xiaobao raises his leaky flying sword and announces to the Three Realms, "Starting today, tribulations must come with a punchline!"

The Immortal Realm's envoy falls to his knees and begs, "Ascend already! Your immortal armor keeps staging accidents and conning us out of every last pair of pants!"

This is a legend about rewriting the history of cultivation through outrageous antics. Its motto is:

Can't beat them? Laugh them to death!
