Chu Yang, a notorious slacker in the cultivation world, one day receives an “Exemption from the Ascension Exam” notice.
He thinks he’ll join the ranks of the immortals and enjoy a carefree life, only to discover that...
The immortal realm has long been caught up in cutthroat competition, and even the gods work nine to nine, six days a week!
Alchemy? Hot pot seasoning is better!
A tribulation? A cheesy viral video can break your inner demons!
Merit KPIs? Turn the system upside down and rack up the points!
While the rest of the immortal realm still cultivates by outdated methods, Chu Yang brings his modern art of doing absolutely nothing and turns Heaven upside down!
He cooks hot pot in Doushuai Palace, blowing up all thirty-six alchemy furnaces and enraging the Supreme Lord Laozi, who reveals his rotting dragon form!
He plays cheesy viral videos for the Immortal Emperor and uses “Shadow Fiend” to break through the ninefold lightning tribulation!
He opens the immortal realm’s first black market, packaging “red thread curses” as marriage talismans for sale!
Only when the Handbook for Surviving in the Immortal Realm begins to seep golden blood does Chu Yang realize...
The so-called immortal realm is merely a “Truman Show” created by a higher civilization.
The so-called Heavenly Way is weeping inside a cocoon woven from red threads.
And he, the “BUG” chosen by the System,
must either reboot the false cycle of the immortal realm,
or burn Heaven and destroy the Dao to face a terror on a cosmic scale...
