Lin Xuan transmigrates from the start into the body of a bankrupt sect master and runs off to escape his debts. By chance, he stumbles into a chat group full of powerful figures from the Immortal Realm, all discussing the laws of heaven and ancient secrets. He doesn’t dare speak, so he can only lurk and read. To his surprise, just reading the chat logs makes his cultivation rise on its own.
A chuunibyou ancestor casually complains about hitting a bottleneck in his saber technique, and Lin Xuan has an epiphany about sword energy. He makes up a few lines about a chuunibyou character’s ultimate move, and the ancestor evolves on the spot.
A tsundere girl shows off a newly refined immortal pill. Lin Xuan secretly learns how to make it and starts scalping them, establishing a thousand-year-old brand on the spot. He even shares middle-school biology facts that turn the other person into a pill-refining big shot.
A weapon-forging fanatic brags about his failed creations. Lin Xuan says one word, “alloy,” and the other man immediately sets off on the path to building a Gundam.
The most beautiful immortal is bored, so Lin Xuan smoothly strings together a manicure, a selfie, and a pretty meal, turning her into a social-media addict.
Then he looks at his own once-dilapidated sect.
Now it has a human tank strong enough to lift a giant cauldron,
a mini Taotie that can sniff out heavenly treasures,
an alchemist whose furnace explodes every time,
and a guy who uses a broom and a cleaver as a Green Dragon Crescent Blade.
And, of course, there’s me, an actor with professional integrity who’s also ridiculously overpowered.
