Lin Xian, a menial disciple of the Qingyun Sect with the weakest Five-Element mixed spiritual root, lives by one creed: if he can lie down, he won’t stand; if he can rely on the System, he won’t do it himself.
After accidentally binding himself to the Myriad Things Synthesis System, he lets loose completely: weeds become spirit energy pills, scrap metal becomes magical treasures, and even sect notices can be turned into “No-Penalty Slacking Charms”! He also picks up A Mian, a sleepy spirit body who becomes his partner. Whenever A Mian falls asleep, spiritual energy radiates from them, boosting synthesis success rates while passively absorbing spirit materials. They’re practically a walking cheat.
While others toil at cultivation until they cough up blood, the two of them lie around through their trials and break through to Foundation Establishment in their sleep. When heretics attack, Lin Xian synthesizes a drowsiness formation, and A Mian lies at its core to amplify its effects, effortlessly wiping out the enemy forces. When it’s time to overcome the tribulation and ascend, the two snack inside the synthesis chamber, and the lightning tribulation becomes fuel for their upgrades!
While the entire cultivation world throws itself into arduous training, Lin Xian and A Mian make lying flat their path to the Great Dao. They rise against all odds to become lazy Immortal Venerables who command the respect of the Nine Heavens, and even establish a new rule for the immortal realm: “Everyone must lie flat for three days a week!”
Who says cultivation has to mean endless hardship? Lie down, and you can still become a legend!
