A Disastrous Start: I Became a Furnace Cauldron at a Taoist Temple

Lin Chen used to be an undercover police officer. After his cover was blown, he transmigrated to a cultivation world. His instincts, honed by years undercover, told him something was off about his master. The techniques his master taught him had no practical use at all. He only taught him medical skills. After gaining the ability to appraise something once a day, Lin Chen learned that he was a cauldron his master planned to use to establish his Foundation. Fortunately, the status panel he received could grant him abilities and boost his cultivation. So Lin Chen secretly cultivated in the Taoist temple, steadily growing stronger as he prepared to defeat his master one day and escape the fate of being a cauldron. But everything began to change when his master left the temple to travel the world, leaving Lin Chen in the care of a senior fellow disciple he had never met before.
