Good news: I've transmigrated.
Bad news: I'm the emperor's body double, and danger lurks everywhere.
Good news: I have the Book of a Hundred Lives, which lets me start over again and again after death.
The road to immortality is long, and tribulations are unpredictable.
Chen Hanshan transmigrates to a cultivation world, where his fate as a “scapegoat” makes him the emperor's body double and puts him in constant danger.
Fortunately, when he transmigrated, he obtained the supreme treasure known as the Book of a Hundred Lives. It lets him repeatedly reincarnate and be reborn, drawing on the experience of his past lives to carve out a way to survive even in the direst of circumstances.
In his first life, Chen Hanshan dies at the hands of the White Lotus Saintess while enjoying the company of his consorts.
In his second life, he subdues the White Lotus Saintess, only to face a rebellion by the powerful chancellor. The chancellor storms the imperial city, and Chen Hanshan dies of exhaustion fighting a thousand enemies alone.
In his third life, Chen Hanshan finally takes another man's place and reigns supreme over the world, only to fall to a single sword strike from an immortal in the heavens.
In his fourth life, Chen Hanshan slays a true immortal against all odds in a mortal body and embarks on the path of cultivation, only to discover that the cultivation world is nothing more than a much larger breeding farm.
Every time he starts over, the Book of a Hundred Lives grants him a reward.
[You have gained the talent Seven-Orificed Exquisite Heart: supreme insight, a crystal-clear Dao heart, and the ability to create divine abilities with ease.]
[You have gained the innate spiritual treasure Human Emperor Sword: its edge is the will of humanity and its blade is the realm itself. It cuts through fate and protects all living beings!]
[You have gained the Great Luo divine ability, Immortal Heaven Sword Qi: one sword splits the heavens, one parts the earth, one severs karma, and one breaks all laws.]
After a hundred lives, he looks back and sees:
Immortal Dao Lords, demonic overlords, ancient gods, and Buddhas have all withered away in the river of time.
Only Chen Hanshan remains, undying through a hundred lives and unbroken through ten thousand tribulations, having reached the end of the Great Dao.
“Achieving the Dao and gaining immortality is all thanks to my astonishing wisdom and hard work!”

The beginning was alright. The simulated cheat system, also known as the Hundred Lifetimes Book, allows you to choose talents, cultivation levels, and skills each time you restart. The plot flows quite smoothly, the pacing is good, and there aren't any major flaws at the beginning. I'm giving it a thumbs up. Judging from the start, it's definitely worth watching. I wonder how it will turn out later. Keep it up, author!
I don't know why, it was written quite well but ended up being abandoned. 😭
