   The path to immortality is long and arduous, but I will prove my immortality through a long dream! "In the Fallen Era of Cultivation, I Witnessed Countless Lifetimes in the Mortal World" In the Lingtian Dynasty, where the path to immortality shines like the blazing sun, Li Changxiao's birth was as inevitable as dust settling—a prince born out of wedlock, his mother a lowly palace maid, his name not even recorded in the clan genealogy. The name "Changxiao" was his mother's humble wish, yet it seemed to become a mockery of fate. His spiritual roots were inferior, his cultivation crawling like a tortoise. While his fellow disciples progressed rapidly, he trudged along the third level of Qi Refining, enduring endless cold stares and bullying. However, this seemingly bottom-tier "waste" in the cultivation world possessed a secret that even ancient texts and magical artifacts couldn't decipher—the Great Dream Longevity Body! No heaven-sent system, no miraculous encounters. This gift etched deep within his soul is the pure essence of Eastern fantasy: A Dream Heals All Wounds: Sinking into a dream, whether one's foundation is shattered, spiritual energy scattered, or fatal wounds are inflicted, all can be slowly repaired. Longevity Accompanies Dreams: With each peaceful sleep, a year quietly adds to his lifespan, time flowing silently beside his pillow. Dream Realms Sprout: As his lifespan accumulates, a mysterious dream space forms within his body, possessing boundless potential. At the height of the cultivation world, he had no chance to compete with the prodigies, only silently enduring and diligently cultivating. Three hundred years of honing his skills finally led him to the Nascent Soul stage. However, times changed, and the path of immortality eventually faced its "twilight of decline." When the prosperity faded, the path to immortality was severed, the prodigies turned to ashes, and sects became ruins... Only he, Li Changxiao, this "immortal waste" once despised by everyone, survived endless years with his "Great Dream Immortal Body." A pot of turbid wine, laughing at the mortal world. He went from being a discarded son of the dynasty to becoming the sole witness to the changing times. There are no shortcuts on the path to immortality, and immortality is not a smooth road. "In the Fallen Era of Immortal Cultivation, I Witnessed Countless Lifetimes in the Mortal World"—Watch as the most "useless" prince, in the end times of the immortal path, through a series of grand dreams, endures the long river of time, witnesses the vicissitudes of life, and proves his unique immortality! Click to read and experience this slow-burning legend of immortality with no system and pure Eastern charm!

   (Lighthearted and invincible + not frustrating + multiple female leads, but not mindless romance + no system) Ye Chen was originally the junior disciple of the strongest reclusive sect in the Immortal Realm. Possessing the Body of All Laws and extraordinary talent, he became the "strongest connections" in the Immortal Realm. However, due to his cunning and playful nature, he caused trouble everywhere, stealing immortal medicine, watching female disciples bathe, kidnapping and extorting, which led many powerful figures in the Immortal Realm to complain to the Wuji Immortal Emperor. Left with no other choice, the Wuji Immortal Emperor sealed Ye Chen's cultivation and kicked him to the mortal realm. At fifteen, Ye Chen fell into the Tianxuan Sect of the Canglan Realm and was taken in as a disciple by the mysterious Su Taixu. In the mortal realm, Ye Chen's nature remained unchanged; he robbed sect elders and disciples who came to challenge him, auctioned off sect disciples with whom he had grudges, and caused trouble along the way. Years later, Ye Chen returned to the Immortal Realm, and all the sects simultaneously activated their protective formations to prevent troublemakers from taking advantage of the situation. Upon returning to the Immortal Realm, Ye Chen gradually learns its secrets: a powerful alien race is sealed within, poised to break free and bring annihilation upon the Immortal Realm. Faced with this formidable alien race, how will Ye Chen protect the peace of the Immortal Realm...?

    Reader note

    A rift in spacetime tossed Li Da, carrying memories of Earth, into the mire of the mortal and immortal realms. No one knew that this seemingly ordinary little immortal child harbored within him chaotic secrets even the Three Pure Ones dared not divulge; even fewer suspected that behind him stood the carefree Daoist Lu Ya—the junior uncle whom even Hongjun had neglected, watching through the rift in time as he stirred up the Heavenly Court's turmoil. The Heavenly Court was not a celestial realm, but a battlefield of carnage. The Jade Emperor sat in the Lingxiao Palace, holding not a scepter, but a bargaining chip in the power struggle between the three religions; the Jade Void Palace of the Chan Sect harbored underhanded schemes to suppress the Jie Sect, the Eight Trigrams Palace of the Human Sect calculated its own gains, and beneath the lotus throne of the Western Buddhist Realm, its influence had long since extended into the Eastern territory. When Li Da rose from a minor official to stand before the Jade Emperor, he discovered that the rules of the Three Realms had long been filled with the calculations of ancient powerful beings: the sky mended by Nuwa had cracks, the disciples taken in by Hun Kun harbored rebellious intentions, and even the fragments of the "divine artifacts of creation" left behind by the Primordial Spirit of Creation had become dice for various forces to gamble with their lives. He had seen the Book of Life and Death secretly altered by the judges of the Underworld, heard the remnants of the demon race recount the old stories of Emperor Jun, and even, during a deadly pursuit, touched the "legacy" that overturned the old order—perhaps Nuwa's unspoken thoughts, or perhaps a pioneer's blood-written letter. When the dark clouds of cosmic calamity pressed down, Li Da finally stopped hiding his abilities. He revealed his connection to the Primordial Spirit of Creation, gathered the scattered fragments of divine artifacts across the Three Realms, sneered at the Six Emperors and Five Elders' attempts to win him over, and raised an eyebrow at the schemes of the Buddhist and Taoist sects. The ultimate opponent was never some powerful being, but rather the "fatalism" etched into the very bones of the Heavenly Dao. "You've fought for this order for billions of years; it's time for a change." When modern thinking collides with ancient intrigue, when a soul from another world breaks the shackles of the Heavenly Dao, this intricate game spanning immortals and mortals, involving Buddhism and Taoism, and stirring up chaos, must ultimately be decided by him. Will he be a discarded pawn on the chessboard? Or will he overturn the board, letting the Three Pure Ones witness him rewrite the universe? "The Divine Firmament"—witness the transmigrator Li Da, who, with a mortal body, unravels the Heavenly Dao's chessboard, wields fragments of divine artifacts, and ushers in a new era for the Three Realms!

The protagonist unexpectedly gains the ability to peer into the memories of the gods, and from then on struggles on the boundary between reality and illusion. It gave me goosebumps but I couldn't stop watching.
