Gu Yi is an ordinary office worker, living the usual nine-to-five life. In his spare time, he reads novels, plays games, and keeps up with the latest anime in his rented apartment. He's a textbook shut-in. One day, he wakes up to discover that he's become an ordinary disciple of a sect in a cultivation world. The only unusual thing is that this is the world of a cultivation novel he once read, and this sect is where the protagonist used to live. The protagonist is still a novice, having just become the sect's leader's personal disciple and begun laying the groundwork for his future path to domination. With a male lead who dominates the cultivation world, a female lead with an impressive background, a mentally unstable villain, and all sorts of male and female supporting characters around the protagonist, Gu Yi, with his mediocre aptitude, figures he has no chance of competing with them. Better to keep his head down. He can also watch the protagonists' tangled love and hate from up close, so Gu Yi begins his utterly unremarkable life as a bystander in the cultivation world.
Theme: Everyday life as a spectator in a cultivation world.
