[Comedic Rants] [Leveling Up] [Humor]
What should you do when you transmigrate into the role of a cannon-fodder character in a broken-engagement story? Lin Bufan's answer: start roasting everyone!
After awakening the “Get Stronger by Ranting” System, he discovers that this world of cultivation is full of things worth mocking. Villains die because they talk too much? Then he'll roast them until they shut down! Geniuses show off like it's second nature? Then he'll blast their arrogance to pieces with his sharp tongue! Cultivation techniques take too long to master? One rant, and the System optimizes them! Even when a heavenly tribulation strikes, he can quip, “That's all the power you've got? Trying to charge me up?”
And so, the whole tone of the story goes completely off the rails. While others are cultivating in seclusion, he's ranting. While others are fighting over treasures, he's ranting. Even while others are locked in life-or-death duels, he's still ranting! The more absurd part is that the more he rants, the stronger he becomes. From a mine laborer to a sect's core disciple, from a Five-Element useless spirit root to a Foundation Establishment prodigy, he carves out the most irreverent path to sainthood in history with nothing but his mouth.
Of course, he has company along the way: a fat orange cat that calls itself “this emperor.” Apart from eating and sleeping, its greatest hobbies are creating things to complain about and sabotaging everyone. “Back in my day...” is its favorite catchphrase. Its memories may be in tatters, but its talent for talking back is still as sharp as ever.
This is a lighthearted story about fighting with words, leveling up through things worth ranting about, and turning the tables on a world of cultivation packed with familiar tropes. When ranting becomes the ultimate cheat, watch Lin Bufan mock heaven, earth, and even thin air, all while taking his unreliable Cat Emperor along on an unprecedented road to becoming the “King of Rants” and attaining sainthood!
