Laying Low in the Mortal World, I Sign In While the Empress Eavesdrops on My Thoughts

After transmigrating into a fantasy world for ten years, Lu Changfeng binds himself to the Myriad Realms Guardian System. He signs in every day and picks up fragments, wanting only to laze around in Qingyun Town like a nobody until he becomes invincible, then finally emerge.

He thinks of himself as an utterly ordinary fake mortal. He grumbles that the monsters of Blackwind Ridge are a nuisance, and the next moment they’re instantly slain by a mysterious master. As he puzzles over how to use the cultivation techniques he gets from signing in, the Great Zhou Empress, far away in the Ninth Heaven, suddenly has an epiphany. His inner thoughts help her break through her bottleneck and resolve a sealing crisis.

Zhou Qinglan (the Great Zhou Empress): “He may seem content to lie low, but his Dao insight runs deep. Eavesdropping on his thoughts is more useful than a hundred years of painstaking cultivation!”

Lu Changfeng: “??? How come all the trouble disappears whenever I lie low, and my strength keeps going up without me noticing?”

Until one day, the empress descends in person and bows respectfully. “Senior, please ‘lie low’ a little longer and help me suppress the ancient evil demon!”

Lu Changfeng is dumbfounded. “I’m just a guy who wants to laze around and sign in. How did I become the empress’s Dao mentor?!”
