   The protagonist, Chen Ling, has a truly tragic start: a modern stage director is killed by a spotlight and transmigrates into the body of a boy with the same name in a wasteland world. However, upon waking, he is immediately murdered by his adoptive parents who, to save their biological son, rip out his own heart, and he is thrown into a mass grave. Even more bizarrely, he merges with a world-ending calamity, gaining a group of "Gray Realm spectators" in his mind—these calamities' expectations are his lifeline; if they fall below 20%, the audience will take over his body, and the calamity will descend upon the world. Living without a heart, daring to eat a boning knife like a sausage, and even reviving after being blown to the head with an axe, he can only don a bright red theatrical costume and turn his desperate situation into a series of breathtaking performances. 🥰

    "Quick Transmigration Through Three Thousand Worlds, Struck by Lightning for Ten Thousand Years"—the title sounds like a silly, wish-fulfillment novel, but the actual story portrays "tribulation" as a massive "debt-paying scene" spanning three thousand planes. The protagonist, Nan Xi, was originally a "fake sword cultivator" in the cultivation world, skilled in alchemy, talisman drawing, and array formation, her biggest dream being to survive until ascension. However, during her tribulation, she unexpectedly recognized the ancient artifact "Qiankun Tower" as her master, and was kicked into the three thousand worlds by the tower spirit, thus beginning an infinite flow script of "being struck by lightning for ten thousand years":
