System: [Special Effects System].
He has no cultivation whatsoever, but every move he makes comes with “Great Dao special effects.”
He takes a sip of water, and it becomes “spiritual spring pouring into him, Daoist resonance made manifest.”
He stretches, and it becomes “the Dharma form fills heaven and earth, awe-inspiring through the ages.”
He casually tosses a twig, and it can summon divine thunder from the ninth heaven, scattering clouds for ten thousand miles!
To survive in the brutal world of immortal cultivation, Chen Beixuan has no choice but to pretend to be an unparalleled master and trick a few “easy marks” into protecting him.
But he has no idea that every one of his disciples is a big shot:
His eldest disciple, Su Hongyi: a demonic empress reborn, ruthless and decisive. She swears to follow her master and break through the nine heavens in this life, yet every day he makes her wash dishes and scrub pots, calling it “tempering her Dao heart.”
“My master is making me wash dishes. He must be hinting that I need to cleanse my demonic nature before I can attain the Dao!”
His second disciple, Ye Wudao: an unparalleled genius whose engagement was broken off, burdened by a blood feud, yet his master tosses him a rusty axe and tells him to chop wood.
“This isn’t an ordinary axe! It’s a fragment of Pangu’s Heaven-Opening Axe! My master is teaching me the first move of the art that cleaves heaven and earth!”
His third disciple...
Years later, Chen Beixuan stands at the pinnacle of the universe, looking down at the gods and demons of the myriad heavens trembling beneath him. He sighs helplessly.
“I’m telling you, I really am just a mortal. I can’t even fly on a sword. Do you believe me?”
The whole world: “As if! Please, mighty one, stop showing off your divine powers!”
