I Lay Low at Wuzhuang Temple and Became a Demon

Li Xuanqing transmigrates to the Primordial World and obtains a wondrous treasure that lets him be reborn after death. After dying in vain four times, he learns that in this world of gods and demons, mortal lives are as worthless as grass.

In his fifth life, he begs for a chance to become an immortal, but is turned away for lacking a spiritual root. He grows old and dies in the mountains.

In his sixth life, he learns that Wuzhuang Temple also accepts people without spiritual roots.

In his eleventh life, after enduring countless hardships to enter the temple, he is betrayed by a senior brother he trusted, who cuts out his heart to make medicine.

In his twelfth life, he returns with demonic arts…

A hundred lives later, Zhenyuanzi, the Patriarch of Earthly Immortals, stares at the stripped-bare Ginseng Fruit Tree, lost in thought. Li Xuanqing lies at ease in an immortal palace paved with the skulls of his enemies, taking a leisurely sip of immortal wine:

"The immortal path won't accept me, so I'll become a demon right here in the temple. I really love this place."
