   The protagonist, Su Ming, unlocks a system cheat at the age of 18, unsealing his past life's power. In a high-martial arts world where myriad races rise and monsters roam, he slays all the demons with a single strike. The system isn't just a cheat code; it's also a "live wire" with its own (tu cao, a Chinese internet slang term for sarcastic or witty remarks) attribute—claiming a 40% mortality rate is "almost nonexistent," and even providing background music for the protagonist's boasting. This, combined with Su Ming's self-proclaimed "Number One Male God of Jiangcheng" chuunibyou (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur), adds plenty of humor to the tense high-martial arts battles. With a single female lead and an ensemble cast, coupled with the thrilling plot of thunderous talents and the war between myriad races, it offers both the exhilaration of an invincible protagonist and lighthearted, humorous daily life, making it a rare and entertaining work in the high-martial arts genre.

It wasn't until I discovered that a certain tycoon's ancestral grave contained a Pinduoduo discount link that I realized the entire Xuanmen (Taoist sect) had been turned into a Shura field by this generation of Daoists—the neighboring Maoshan sect was using tarot cards to steal business, the Celestial Master's Mansion had launched a "Heavenly Thunder Strike" mini-program, and the most amazing thing was that Laoshan's arch-rival, who had improved the Five Elements Escape Technique into a Meituan delivery service! When I used big data to calculate that the City God's credit card was overdue, the Black and White Impermanence were squatting at the Gates of Hell, livestreaming the sale of Meng Po soup: "Family members!
