Others who transmigrate to a fantasy world become either gifted young masters, useless nobodies who rise to greatness, or at the very least get a ring with an old master inside. When Lin Fan transmigrated, he landed a deluxe package as a professional corpse carrier, and spent twenty years at the job. Every day, he would say: “Hello! Corpse Express, at your service!” “Good sir, need an escort? We’ll deliver you right to your ancestral tomb!” “Fellow cultivator, please wait... Oh, looks like you’ve had bad luck. Would you like our full-service package?”
He thought he’d spend his whole life dealing with the dead, stuck at the very bottom of the cultivation world and surrounded by the smell of corpses. Then one day, he discovered that every time he carried a powerful cultivator’s corpse, he automatically gained scraps of their memories and insights into their techniques. Even better, the cultivation left in each corpse was skimmed by the strange Funeral Services Review Manual inside him (a System?) and converted into the purest cultivation energy, which was then fed back to him!
And so everything changed. After carrying a sword grandmaster, his sword intent grew sharper. After hauling away a demonic sect magnate, his demonic arts surged. After burying a saintess from the Immortal Realm... Ahem. Besides the cultivation, that one seemed to leave him with some strange makeup tips and a few lines of cultivation chants?
Before long, his cultivation had rocketed from Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment through Golden Core, Nascent Soul, and Spirit Severing... Nothing could stop him! Standing at the peak of the cultivation world, facing countless powerful enemies, Lin Fan could only sigh helplessly. “I never wanted to cultivate! I’m just an honest corpse carrier. You’re the ones who keep pushing me... Hey, you there, have you fallen from the Emperor Realm? I’ve got a Supreme VIP graveside package available. Book now and get a free suona funeral rite. We’ll give you a grand send-off, and I’ll borrow your cultivation while I’m at it.”
