Stop! Don't Let the Eunuch Cultivate Immortality!

(Traditional xianxia, slow-burn.)

Zhou Lin, a street beggar who transmigrated to the Great Lin Empire: “I thought I’d been handed the script for The Qin Empire, but you’re telling me it’s The Deer and the Cauldron?”

Martial arts? Cultivation?

A low-ranking eunuch who clawed his way up in the imperial palace, Zhou Lin gathered resources while making his way through the court.

While other cultivators fought to the death over resources, all Zhou Lin needed was a cultivation manual. He upgraded its version again and again.

“Heavenly Mirror, activate!”

“Child’s Training Art identified as a low-grade martial arts technique. Upgraded to the low-grade spell Yin-Yang Art.”

“Fireball Technique identified as a low-grade cultivation spell. Upgraded to the low-grade divine ability Three Flavors True Fire.”

“Law of Heaven and Earth identified as a top-grade immortal path divine ability. Upgraded to the supreme divine ability, Xingtian’s True Form.”

The Golden Core Patriarch behind the Great Lin Dynasty: “Why are this year’s offerings so much smaller? The palace is using them? Don’t let the eunuchs cultivate immortality!”
