A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: It Begins with Biting Through an Immortal's Throat

[Ordinary Protagonist + Ruthless and Decisive + Rise from the Bottom + No System + Outwitting Foes]

An overworked corporate drone dies suddenly and transmigrates to the cultivation world, where from the start he is a lowly mine slave whose flesh and blood are being drained.

He has no heaven-defying System and no immortal bones or spiritual roots. All he has is the razor-sharp survival instinct honed by working 996 in his previous life.

When a fatal mine collapse strikes, a great master who has lived for three thousand years tries to possess him, only to discover in horror that this body is an “unregistered soul” beyond the reach of even Heaven’s karma!

Faced with the overseer’s blade and the sect’s blood sacrifice meant to silence him, Gu Ye grips a mysterious gray bead that can reveal the underlying logic of the world. Relying neither on some elusive heavenly fate nor anything else, but only on ruthless scheming and an unyielding ferocity, he manages to bite through the throat of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

He joins the sect and takes on its champions, using his frail body to lay one trap within another and turning those mighty figures who think themselves invincible into stepping-stones.

Killing formations and karmic schemes are nothing but threads full of flaws in his eyes.

“Since Heaven doesn’t acknowledge this body of mine, then that makes me exempt from your jurisdiction, you thieving Heaven.”

As the fatal karmic retribution of the Cloudseal Great Realm descends upon him, he simply brushes the black mud from his cracked iron shovel and gazes coldly at the immortals and Buddhas filling the sky.
