[Book of a Hundred Lives + Chaos Cauldron | Subverting cultivation tropes | Genius comeback | Brainless power fantasy]
Lin Chen woke up one morning and found that he had transmigrated.
There was one piece of good news and one piece of bad news.
The good news:
He had transmigrated into the body of a second-generation Nascent Soul cultivator from an immortal clan. At sixteen, he was at the seventh level of Qi Refining, and he possessed an unparalleled Supreme Bone. He was the very picture of a chosen protagonist!
The bad news:
He was hopelessly lovestruck. To make a pretty young cultivator smile, he had rashly ventured alone into a sea of demonic beasts and gotten himself killed.
“Guys, how do I save myself when demonic beasts are chasing me?”
“Need an answer ASAP.”
Golden finger: “What are you scared of? Just fight it!”
Lin Chen: “That's a mid-second-level demonic beast, the equivalent of a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator. I'm only at the seventh level of Qi Refining. How am I supposed to fight it?”
Golden finger: “You have a Supreme Bone. Fighting above your level should be as easy as chopping melons and vegetables.”
Lin Chen: “Right, I have a Supreme Bone.”
He gathered his energy in his dantian and struck with all his might.
The demonic beast: “Slurp.”
Lin Chen was swallowed whole!
The demonic beast: “The meat doesn't taste good, but there's a bone stuck in my throat.”
Lin Chen: “You damn heavens, are you messing with me? If you're giving me a golden finger, at least give me a good one!”

Lin Chen: “???”
“Heh, I was only teasing you just now. Heaven really does treat me well.”
