Genius protagonist (couldn’t come up with a golden finger), lucky charm (steals other people’s luck), demonic genius (forced by circumstance), no female lead (a sigma man), ruthless and decisive (repays kindness and settles scores)
Zhao Heng, a naive and guileless college student, accidentally transmigrates to a bizarre world of immortal cultivation. Hunted from the start, he is lucky enough to be rescued by his master, Wu Suowei, and taken in as a disciple. He teaches himself all kinds of demonic arts, using corpses to make undead and gathering qi to coagulate blood. The more he learns about this world, the more insignificant he feels. After witnessing the power of the Venerables and experiencing the helplessness of mortals firsthand, he vows to become stronger. Perhaps one day, he too can become a Venerable.
