[Longevity + clones + cosmic stars + keeping a low profile + xuanhuan]
(The protagonist is lucky and reasonably clever early on, and gets smarter as the story progresses, but he’s no genius.)
Yang Tian transmigrates to a high-martial immortal-heroic world, where warriors can split mountains and rivers, strange beasts roam, enemies lurk beyond the stars, mechanical god-minds plot, and schemes abound!
But after transmigrating, he’s just an ordinary person! No resources, no connections. What can he do?
Just roll with it!
Who’d be stupid enough not to transmigrate? I’m taking the plunge!
“Boy, become my disciple! Help me come back to life, and then the two of us will rule the universe!”
“Honored Master, please accept this disciple’s bow!”
“Good disciple, I have the Longevity Immortal Art here. Would you like to learn it?”
“This disciple would be honored! But please grant me another art as well, Master!”
“Good disciple! You truly have foresight!”
“Then I’ll grant you the Infinite Clone Codex as well!”
“Thank you, Master, for this art!”
“Hahaha, think nothing of it, I, ”
“Ah! You, you…”
“Me? You old geezer! Hand over all the good stuff!”
“You insignificant ant!”
“Idiot! You’re giving off black smoke. You’re obviously a bad guy!”
“You really thought I believed you? The words ‘Demon Venerable of Ten Thousand Arts’ are carved on the back of this jade pendant. You didn’t even think to cover them up!”
“Let’s see what else you’ve been keeping from me!”
“The Spiritual Origin Dao Art? It makes you stronger by devouring life force and blood essence? And you can sacrifice yourself to forcibly raise your cultivation? Looks like it could be used with the Infinite Clone Codex!”
“The Myriad Tribulations Dao Puppet? Is this for making puppets?”
“Heh! I’ve got a plan!”
“Have my clones grow stronger through sacrifice, then turn them into puppets!”
