My Past Lives Were All Big Shots

Li Xuanchao transmigrated into the cultivation world and became a menial disciple of Jinzhushan with terrible aptitude. From the start, outer sect disciples were already demanding repayment of his debts. But Li Xuanchao wasn’t worried, because he had bound himself to an editor that let him rewrite his past lives. With the Past Life Editor, every time he broke through a major cultivation realm, he could choose a deceased person and edit them into one of his past lives. For his first life, Li Xuanchao chose Li Changfeng, Jinzhushan’s foremost true disciple, and successfully established his foundation using the treasures left behind in Li Changfeng’s cave abode. After establishing his foundation, Li Xuanchao continued his past-life chain with Linggui Zhenren, a peak Golden Core rogue cultivator, and found an inheritance beneath Heart-Ice Lake. When forming his Golden Core, Li Xuanchao chose Wanjian Shenjun, widely recognized as the cultivation world’s foremost Nascent Soul sword cultivator, and gained possession of ten thousand flying swords. Life after life, Li Xuanchao continued unlocking ever more powerful past lives. His past lives had raised spirit turtles, sword spirits, and black serpents, and had even taken on disciples. Until one day, the most legendary empress in the cultivation world came looking for him. Gazing at Li Xuanchao with lovesick eyes, she said, “You heartless man, do you truly not remember me? I waited for you in the mortal world for tens of millions of years, refusing to become an immortal, and at last you were reborn and returned to me.” From a lowly menial disciple to the end of the path to immortality, Li Xuanchao overcame every obstacle along the way. When his disciples asked how hard the journey had been, Li Xuanchao merely smiled. “What hardship? It was simply a road to heaven paved by thousands upon thousands of cycles of reincarnation.”
