Office worker Lin Daoye transmigrates two hundred years into the future.
In this world, cyberpunk and cultivation flourish side by side, while technology dances with the occult.
But beneath its dazzling, bewildering surface lies an incurable age of declining spiritual energy. Desire runs rampant, morality has collapsed, the humanities have withered, powerful conglomerates rule unchallenged, and people with supernatural abilities throw their weight around. Even Heaven can't stand it, periodically sending down strange omens and natural disasters.
In this inferno, the slightest slip can get you killed without a sound.
Lin "Go with the Flow" Daoye looks at her scrawny frame: staying alive is what matters. Don't stand out, don't draw attention.
But things don't go as she wishes. Barely arrived, Lin Daoye gets caught up in a battle between supernatural beings and is ultimately forced into their perilous world.
Lin "Super Adaptable" Daoye: Fine, then I'll do my best to be a nobody.
Who could have guessed she'd awaken a rare "Eye Root"? It's a precious but fragile ability, and its wielder is the easiest to target, the first to die in a fight: the "prophet" role. The only way to stay alive is to level up and advance as fast as she can.
Lin "In Impeccable Mental Condition" Daoye: ...Fine, then I'll quietly work myself to the bone.
To make matters worse, not long afterward Lin Daoye realizes there's something unusual about her constitution. Every time she goes out for an uneventful day, she ends up coming back after causing a whole string of earth-shattering disasters.
Lin "Troublemaker by Nature" Daoye: ...Fine. At least someone upstairs has my back.
That someone is herself.
One day, while Lin Daoye is asleep, her consciousness is inexplicably pulled into an "Immortal Island."
"Our Master has finally returned!"
"Our Master never abandoned us!"
"We welcome the Realm Lord's return!"
The entire Immortal Island erupts into celebration. The "immortals" on the island weep with joy and rush to spread the news, then kneel in reverence.
Lin Daoye, trapped inside a shrine: …
Later, Lin Daoye discovers that those immortals are actually her bosses in the real world.
So by day, Lin "Fake Vase, Real Expert" Daoye diligently carries out missions with her teammates (and causes trouble). By night, Lin "Fake Big Shot, Real Ancestor" Daoye sits on her divine altar, putting on a grand show of offering guidance, while actually freeloading on information and taking advantage of her bosses.
[Little Scene: A Meeting in the "Immortal Realm"]
Senior Executive A: "Could the Master offer some guidance on this issue?"
Lin Daoye (not understanding): ...
Senior Executive A (trembling): "This must be a test from the Master! I'll go look through the classics and run some experiments, then report back to you!"
Senior Executive B: "Master, how should we deal with the team member responsible for this loss?"
Lin Daoye (the culprit, feeling guilty): "...Leave it alone."
Everyone (suddenly understanding): She's a protected favorite! We must never offend her!
