Jin An had just landed a grassroots civil service job, and before he could get the hang of his new workplace, he transmigrated into another world as the lord of a bankrupt city.
With creditors at the door and demons running rampant, the only thing he could rely on was a cracked bronze official seal.
Then he discovered that the seal was actually the ancient divine artifact known as the Myriad Forms Seal. From then on, everything took a decidedly strange turn:
Other cultivators relied on spiritual energy. He relied on performance reviews.
He formed an intelligence bureau with ghosts, set up an infrastructure corps with reanimated corpses, and put tamed beasts in charge of logistics across the whole region.
When a powerful cultivator came looking for trouble, he handed them a “Disciplinary Notice for Violations of Cultivator Conduct”: “You’re in violation. Pay a fine of five hundred spirit stones, or come do three days of community service at my Jing’an Bureau.”
While everyone else was fighting to the death over magical treasures and pills, Jin An was setting new KPIs for the Three Realms. From the chaos of reincarnation in the underworld to the monopolization of resources in the immortal realm, there wasn’t a problem that couldn’t be solved with a work plan and a list of responsibilities.
Years later, with order restored throughout the Three Realms, Jin An sat at the Jing’an Bureau’s headquarters. Facing the World-Destroying Demon Venerable, who had come to provoke him, he silently took out a thick copy of the “Three Realms Public Order and Administration Penalties Act.”
“Don’t talk to me about cultivation, fellow Daoist. You’ve broken the law.”
The setting of this book is so interesting! It is a "hardcore" collision between the modern civil service system and the world of cultivating immortals, which is full of creativity. There is a full sense of contrast between "cultivating immortality through performance appraisal" and "governing bosses through rules and regulations". It has both the rigor and humor within the system and the grand imagination of the immortal hero. The protagonist uses a work plan to solve the problems in the Three Realms. This serious "dimensionality reduction attack" is hilarious and inexplicably reasonable. Looking forward to seeing how the male protagonist uses KPIs and penalty orders to rectify the evil practices in the three realms!
