[Rule-based horror + intangible cultural heritage restoration + no love-brain nonsense]
Ninety percent of cultivators in the world of cultivation die by following the “correct rules”: those who refine pills at midnight explode, those who abstain from food for three months turn to ash, and even repairing a magical artifact with blood gets you pierced through the heart by a vengeful spirit.
Su Yanqiu, a restorer of intangible cultural heritage who transmigrated into a book, died that way herself.
After being reborn and bound to the sharp-tongued System “Mobao,” she discovers a shocking truth: the so-called rules of Heaven have been altered!
“An ancient magical artifact? Carbon-14 dating shows it's a replica made last week.”
“A forbidden technique scroll? Put the missing pages back together and you get Illustrated Guide to Cultivation World's Funniest Moments.”
“Accusing me of stealing? Take a look at Chapter 7 of the Rulebook: the accuser has to slap themselves three times!”
The System's missions are absurd and ridiculous: make a sword cultivator repair a sword with a calligraphy brush, or be forced to sing “Good Luck Is Coming” if she fails.
The heroine's methods are even crazier: she turns a clan-annihilation curse into a wealth-attracting spell, livestreams herself eating braised pork to face-slap an elder who abstains from food, and even feeds chocolate to the shadow stealing her materials!
When a sword spirit bound by the rules kneels and begs for help, she coldly draws her sword. “First, you'll be a test subject for my restoration techniques.”
But as she digs deeper into the corrections, the System suddenly malfunctions and fills with garbled text. Heaven's incarnation, a man in black, begins hunting her down, and she realizes that every false rule points to a shocking scam from three hundred years ago...
