Synopsis

[System + Anti-Trope + Rejecting Historical Nihilism] Lin Chen thought he had merely transmigrated into a standard high-martial world. He planned to rely on his System to level up, defeat monsters, and reach the pinnacle of martial arts. But as the story unfolded, he discovered that the history of this world had gone completely off course.

Two hundred years ago, alien beasts invaded, shattering the lands of Great Xia. The men and women who gave their lives and fought to the bitter end to defend their country were erased from history. Heroes were smeared, and their achievements stolen by petty opportunists. The great clans monopolized every resource and all martial arts traditions, leaving ordinary people to cling to them like ants just to survive. And across Great Xia, foreign troops were stationed everywhere?

I, Lin Chen, will go against this twisted history and uncover the truth buried beneath it. I will bring forgotten heroes back into the light and set this distorted world right. A single spark can start a prairie fire.

If I can’t rely on the System, I’ll rely on myself! I’ll rip apart the fake green-tea and pathetic simp personas, slap arrogant villains, crush spoiled martial arts brats, and sweep away foreign martial artists!

Starting with a counterattack from my rented room, I’ll hunt alien beasts, break through realms, and master the divine blade, turning the world’s prejudice around through my own efforts.

So what if I’m ordinary? This seemingly twisted high-martial world hides secrets at its very foundations and truths that have been buried for ages! I, Lin Chen, don’t need some useless System to carve ordinary people a path to the pinnacle of martial arts!

Please Recommend Transmigration Stories That Aren’t Clichéd!

I've been reading on and off for five or six years. Transmigration is one of the few genres I really like. I have plenty on my bookshelf, but some feel formulaic. Other people have asked for recommendations like this too, but when I click through, I can't find anything to my taste... Any subject is fine!

Any Fresh Takes on System Novels?

There aren't many good System novels these days. Fellow cultivators, can you recommend some? I don't want the kind where the protagonist is constantly handed all kinds of cheat abilities. I want to see him grow stronger step by step, not show off. A System that supports the protagonist is fine.

Recommend Transmigration Novels, No Idiotic System Stories!

Traveling back and forth is fine. Just no brainless stories where the protagonist transmigrates and immediately activates a System. I want something about exploring another world on their own.
