Pan An has lived three lives.
In his first life, he was an ordinary man. By mastering the art of endurance, he endured his way into becoming a nobody at the bottom of society.
In his second life, he became a cultivator in the primordial world. By mastering the art of keeping a low profile, he quietly made his way to becoming a Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal.
In his third life, he doesn't want to endure anymore, and he doesn't want to keep his head down.
It's not that he's decided to work hard. He's given up on life.
