Programmer Lin Wang works himself to death from overtime. When he opens his eyes again, he has become Chu Xiao, a good-for-nothing in the cultivation world.
Faced with disciples of the immortal sect mocking him, Chu Xiao silently pulls out half a box of instant braised beef noodles.
“What is this?” the elders sneer.
Then boiling water is poured into the bowl, and a mysterious aroma fills the hall.
The aloof master smashes her life-bound magical treasure to trade for the soup base, while the sect leader exchanges the sect’s signature technique for a fork.
The old ancestor, who has been in seclusion for a century, bursts out of his retreat: “Save me a sip of soup!”
As the entire cultivation world goes mad for seasoning packets, Chu Xiao smiles beneath a plaque reading “Food is the people’s paramount concern.”
“Fellow Daoists, the path of cultivation is long. How about a bowl of instant noodles first?”
