I Forge Immortality Through Trait Selection

Li Mu has just transmigrated into the body of an outer sect disciple of Yutai Sect when the Holy Maiden declares her love for him in front of everyone. While everyone else is green with envy, he makes a decision that goes against his ancestors' wishes. He rejects her! Everyone thinks he has gone mad, but Li Mu happily studies the choice panel before him. [You chose to reject her and received the talent trait “Lie Flat Life.”] [Lie Flat Life: As long as you don't cultivate, you gain ten days' worth of cultivation every day. But for each pill you absorb and refine to improve your cultivation, your cultivation regresses by one year.] “Heh. The Holy Maiden? Is she as good as lying flat?” With each choice, Li Mu gains more and more talent traits. He discovers that if he pushes the side effects to their limits, he can unlock hidden effects. [Lie Flat Life] → [Lie Flat Sage's Heart]: The lie-flat effect is ten times stronger! [Critical Hit] → [Critical Devastation]: Hitting an enemy can increase your physical strength without limit! Wait, traits can be fused too?! [Steady Damage Build: Supreme Dao Sword Heart + Critical Devastation + Immovable Wisdom King = Supreme Dao Sword Heart: Steady] [Explosive Finisher Build: Formless Shattering of Forms + Traitorous Disciple + Self-Reliance = Formless Shattering of Forms: Explosive] On this day, facing an ancient being that is both undying and indestructible, he raises his hand and slashes with his sword. Its light tears through the river of time, crosses the eternal Great Dao, and cuts into the flow of time that defies the world. The undying and indestructible being dies! “Other than me, who in this world could possibly be undying and indestructible?”
