Suiyuan dies of overwork and transmigrates into a cultivation novel as its ultimate villain.
The villain is gifted but suffers one hardship after another, becoming bloodthirsty and cruel and slaughtering cultivators left and right.
In the end, the novel's protagonist acts on Heaven's behalf and runs him through with a sword.
Suiyuan smiles. What kind of world-destroying plot is this? He just wants to travel the world, grow old in the mountains, and avoid dying from overwork.
Suiyuan is lazy and good for nothing. Everyone thinks he's a hopeless little hoodlum.
Until one day, all the named characters in the transmigrated world foresee the novel's plot in their dreams.
They look at Suiyuan with complicated, wordless expressions.
Senior sister: Take my treasured high-grade spirit stones, and use them to ascend, junior brother.
Master: I bestow upon you this peerless divine sword. May you ascend to the heavens soon.
Leader of the righteous path: The forbidden grounds of my sect are rich in spiritual energy. If you practice there, you'll surely ascend.
Now that the plot has been exposed, shouldn't the cultivation sects join forces to kill him, before this great demon reaches the peak of his power?
Why is everyone hoping he'll ascend as soon as possible?
The nightmare that leads him toward evil: Stop lying around and get up to cultivate!
The ancient demon beast that keeps chasing him to become his master: Take me with you when you ascend!
His future subordinate swears his loyalty: My lord, just give the word and I'll do as I did in the dream: slaughter Xiaoyao Sect and destroy Lingyang Sect.
Suiyuan: Help... I don't want to destroy the world, cultivate, or ascend.
After running into the novel's protagonist, Shi Yixuan, several times, Suiyuan wants to get on good terms with him, so he won't be stabbed straight through the heart in the future.
Shi Yixuan's swordsmanship is peerless.
Suiyuan praises his divine, otherworldly bearing.
Shi Yixuan is aloof and pure by nature.
Suiyuan compliments his radiant elegance.
During an outing together, a drunken Shi Yixuan murmurs, "I finally understand why I wanted to die with you in my dream."
Suiyuan: "Die with me?"
Shi Yixuan: "Because I couldn't have your true heart, no matter how much I wanted it. If I can't have it, I'll destroy it."
Suiyuan is horrified and flees to the demon realm.
Later, Shi Yixuan cleaves the demon realm apart with one sword as he searches everywhere for him.
The world praises him: "Sword Immortal Shi Yixuan, with the greater good in his heart, has personally entered the demon realm to save the people and prevent the Demon Lord from entering the mortal world. Incredible! Admirable!"
