Lin Fan transmigrates into a world of immortal heroes and binds himself to the Director System.
Other people's systems give them cultivation and divine artifacts. His only gives him scripts and special effects. He has to cultivate and fight for himself, and if he gets caught faking it, he has to deal with the consequences himself.
First mission: Get a Golden Core elder to accept a disciple within three days.
Lin Fan checks the teleprompter, which reads, “This person's inner demon is a remark their master made three hundred years ago.” He rehearses all night, then the next day “sleep-talks” about heavenly secrets along the elder's usual route.
The elder falls to his knees: This is a spirit-communing physique!
Second mission: Win the sect tournament.
Lin Fan stages an effect that makes it look as if the founding patriarch has manifested. His opponent is so terrified that he forfeits.
Later, a secret organization that controls the dynasty comes looking for this “mortal who can glimpse the secrets of heaven,” hoping to capture him.
Lin Fan looks at his third-stage Qi Refining cultivation, then at the newly unlocked [Immortal King Descends: Special Effects Pack] in his System.
He sighs and presses play.
That day, at the organization's headquarters thousands of miles away, they see the phantom of an ancient Immortal King appear among the clouds, along with one word that resounds across heaven and earth: “Leave.”
The organization leaves, and even pays a hefty apology in spirit stones.
Looking at the cultivation resources filling his warehouse, Lin Fan falls into deep thought: I'm really just an actor. Why do they insist on worshipping me as a god?
Then one day, a mighty cultivator who can see through every disguise stands before him and says with a smile, “Done acting?”
Lin Fan smiles too, secretly reaching for a button in the System he's never dared to click:
[Final Script: The True God Descends]
