Xu Xi suddenly felt something was off: “Wait, you said you’re coming to the real world to find me?”

My name is Qi Yuan, a transmigrator who became the senior brother of the Seven-Colored Peak.

I possess a game jade slip that connects to the myriad worlds. My eyes reveal hidden truths:

[This is an ordinary blade of grass, but three days ago, the Dry Wood True Monarch and the Empress of Great Shang secretly met here.]

[Her name is Ruan Yixi. She appears to be your beautiful master, but she might actually be your wife.]

[This is the Heavenly Dao of this world, the best spiritual material for Dao Foundation.]

[This is a lifeless planet—perhaps it can be refined into your Golden Core.]

Thus, my path of cultivation turned increasingly bizarre:

"Heavenly Dao? Isn’t this a spiritual material for my foundation?"

"So many barren planets? Let’s refine them all into Golden Cores!"

With the Heavenly Dao as my foundation and stars as my Golden Core, I embark on a cultivation journey beyond imagination.

My name is Qi Yuan—the origin of all things!

Meanwhile, I am Jiang Lingsu. Harboring a secret purpose, I joined the Seven-Colored Peak. My senior brother is eccentric—eschewing traditional cultivation, he is obsessed with simulation games.

"Games are cultivation. Through games, I create worlds."

One day, another sun appeared in the sky.

"What’s that?" I asked.

"That’s my Golden Core," senior brother replied.

“So, you’ve been deceiving me all along, haven’t you?” She trembled as she lifted her gaze, only to find that her senior brother’s once-familiar face now seemed terrifyingly foreign.

“Deception? Hmm, how should I put it?” Her senior brother chuckled dismissively, wagging a finger. “It’s more accurate to say that none of you ever truly understood who I was.”

With an air of nonchalance, he turned and strode toward the celestial throne in the sky.

Peerless sword light, raging seas of flames, and radiant silver starlight surged toward his back like a massive tidal wave—yet, as if repelled by an invisible barrier, they were all blocked and dispersed.

Countless spells and brilliant radiance were annihilated in an instant.

“Damn it!” Xu Yinglian bit her silver teeth in frustration, turning to glance at the frost-covered face of An Zhisu and the silent Shi Liuli.

The group quickly exchanged looks. Resentment, despair, sorrow, fear—or even lingering affection and reluctance—had all lost their meaning now.

What mattered most in this moment was stopping that bastard!

Classic cultivation story.

The protagonist uses a “time management” cheat to skillfully infiltrate major sects in the cultivation world, reaping benefits and mastering countless techniques.

Ultimately, he ascends to the celestial throne, achieving immortality.

However, the process of ascending doesn’t seem to be going quite as smoothly…

Ning Chen was a combat enthusiast who believed in using physical means to deal with anyone he disliked.

Later, he was hunted down by his enemies and, after his death, transmigrated into a revenge novel as a wretchedly tragic villain.

The great villain is the Demon Lord of the Three Realms. In the original story, the villain crazily opposes the male lead, seizing his resources and celestial artifacts, taking his spirit beast mount, and even coveting the male lead’s harem, ultimately being brutally avenged by the male lead with a sword through the heart.

Ning Chen discovered that he crossed over into a world of cultivation and was required to follow the original plot. After pondering for a moment, he immediately grabbed his sword and traveled thousands of miles to find the male lead who is in the midst of cultivation, and happily engaged in a fierce battle with him.

#After all, we’re both cultivators. Isn’t a fight reasonable?#

———

Ning Chen diligently played the role of the malicious villain.

When the male lead went to a secret realm for training, Ning Chen ambushed him in advance, resulting in a battle so intense that it nearly shattered the secret realm.

When the male lead wanted to hunt a demon beast, Ning Chen killed the beast the male lead had his eyes on ahead of time, then naturally engaged in a fight with him.

As the plot point where the male lead was supposed to kill him with a single sword strike approached, Ning Chen pondered for a moment and decided to go big.

He led a grand wedding procession and directly blocked the entrance of the Immortal sect, specifically demanding that the sect’s pride and joy to marry him.

Proud as the Long Aotian protagonist, how could he possibly endure such humiliation!

Surely, the moment the male lead came out, he wouldn’t waste a single word and would draw his sword to fight him. With the added fury buff, wouldn’t this battle be even more exhilarating?

Ning Chen thought with satisfaction.

Then, he saw the usually calm and composed Long Aotian protagonist frown, broke free from several pairs of hands holding him down, and without saying a single word, amidst the cries of “Stay calm, don’t be impulsive!” from the disciples of the Immortal Sect—

He got into the bridal sedan chair carried by the demon generals.

After a while, the ethereal and otherworldly male lead lifted the curtain and, under the stunned gazes of everyone, said to the brain-blank Demon Lord, “Didn’t you want me to marry you? Are we leaving or not?”

#If nothing unexpected happens, something unexpected probably happened#

#But I just wanted to fight him!#

#Oh well, the bed works too (crossed out)

My name is Jiang Li. After transmigrating, I didn’t receive any cheat or golden finger. Left to my own devices, I painstakingly cultivated all the way to the Mahayana stage.

Now, out of nowhere, a system suddenly pops up, claiming it can help me "rise from the bottom"—from a mere Qi Refinement stage cultivator to become the number one in the cultivation world.

Hold on, System bro, you’re a bit late. I, Jiang Li, am already the Human Emperor of this era, revered across the Nine Provinces. I’ve already become the undisputed number one in the cultivation world.

Official description:

“I’ve repeatedly emphasized that the cultivation world’s atmosphere was already crooked – I didn’t make it that way,” Sword Immortal Lu Yang declared during a press interview, expressing great anger. “They say history is written by the victors, so why am I still being falsely accused even though I’ve won?”

The next day.

“I’ve repeatedly emphasized that I’m the one who made the cultivation world’s atmosphere crooked. History is written by the victors, and I’ve won!” Sword Immortal Lu Yang declared during the press interview, expressing great anger.

— As reported by the Cultivation Daily News

When Zhao Rong opened his eyes, he found himself in a bridal chamber decorated with red candles and festive paper-cut windows.

Right in front of him, on the wedding bed, sat a bride in a phoenix coronet and ceremonial robe, her head covered with a red veil.

Zhao Rong rubbed his sleepy eyes. Wait, I’ve become a groom? Oh, a live-in son-in-law, at that. Got it.

He adjusted his facial expression, preparing to give a crooked smile. Hold on… huh? Something’s off.

The bride is my childhood sweetheart! And she secretly loves me? Oh, in that case, everything’s fine. This feels just right.

Zhao Rong happily stepped forward and lifted the red veil. Hey, hey, wife, why are you running away?

In a chaotic era, as the tides of the times swept forward, scholar Zhao Rong stepped up to face them. Not only did he need to chase after the footsteps of his childhood sweetheart, the Sword Immortal wife, but he also wanted to witness firsthand the great debates of the Hundred Schools that engulfed much of the cultivation world…

Having transmigrated and become a Little Taoist Priest of Ping’an Temple, Xiang Jiannan feels that his life is quite tragic.

Since transmigrating, all sorts of things that don’t align with his original worldview have come his way, especially that Master in the Taoist temple, who is definitely clueless about how much he’s screwing people over.

Let’s see how a Little Taoist Priest strives to grow while shedding tears of frustration.

***

Xiang Jiannan, a modern soul mysteriously transmigrated into the body of a young Taoist priest in the remote town of Ping’an, just wants a quiet life. He’s stuck with a master who’s more interested in making a quick buck than imparting wisdom, and the local temple, Ping’an Temple, is more dilapidated than divine. But peace is short-lived. When a local family claims their “Peace Talismans” are useless against a haunting, Xiang Jiannan is reluctantly drawn into a series of increasingly bizarre events.

As he investigates, Xiang Jiannan discovers that Ping’an Town is a hotbed of strange occurrences, from restless spirits to a pig demon with a penchant for collecting debts. With his master’s help (or hindrance), and his own surprisingly potent, though often unpredictable, abilities, Xiang Jiannan must navigate this supernatural chaos. He finds himself forming an uneasy alliance with a mysterious agent from the Fu Mo Si, a government agency dedicated to suppressing the paranormal, and facing off against a variety of colorful characters, both human and otherwise.

Along the way, Xiang Jiannan grapples with the meaning of cultivation, the effectiveness of his master’s questionable methods, and the very nature of good and evil. His journey is a blend of comedic mishaps, genuine moments of terror, and a deep dive into a world where the line between the mundane and the magical is constantly blurred. He’ll be forced to question everything he thought he knew about Taoism, about his master, and even about himself. And through it all, he must learn to trust his instincts, even if they lead him down the most unexpected, and often hilarious, paths.

Old Man: "Do you wish for revenge?"

Young Man: "I was humiliated repeatedly by the strong, treated as worthless trash by my master. How could I not want revenge?"

The old man patted the youth’s head and sighed: "Good child, let me pass my powers to you."

The young man was shocked: "Senior! How can I possibly accept that?"

The old man extended his hand: "Give me your phone."

Staring at his phone in disbelief, the young man exclaimed: "Senior! Where did all this hundred years of cultivation come from?"

The old man smiled: "Good child, this is your backup power stored in the Heavenly Realm. From now on, you can withdraw it anytime in urgent situations. Never let anyone humiliate you again."

The youth frowned: "Isn’t this just a… 'Spirit Power Loan'? I’m worried…"

The old man reassured: "The Heavenly Realm is a trusted platform. New users get 30 days of interest-free borrowing for a hundred years’ worth of cultivation power. The daily interest rate is as low as half a day’s worth of power, far less than the time it takes to complete one cycle of breathing techniques."
