Who would have thought that reading a book like The Smiling, Proud Wanderer could lead to time travel?
However, he didn't transmigrate into the world of The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, but into the world of The Walking Dead. The book even became his system, allowing him to earn points by killing zombies.
Points can be used to buy everything in the world of Swordsman Online.
It's that simple and straightforward.
A modern youth, well-versed in Taoist classics, transmigrates to the world of Hunter x Hunter and discovers that "Nian" is "Qi". Refusing to follow the conventional path, he resolves to use Nian as the foundation to reopen the "Golden Elixir Sword Path". This is not a simple replication of power, but a solitary journey of climbing to practice Eastern philosophy in another world and questioning the "Tao" with the "sword".
The early part followed the original storyline, while the later part focused on original content.

Taibai transmigrated to the primordial world, becoming the first innate Geng metal essence in existence. He initially planned to cultivate peacefully among the stars, but due to several tremors, he unexpectedly fell into the Kunlun Mountains. By sheer coincidence, he encountered the Three Pure Ones returning from listening to the Dao. As a transmigrator, Taibai already foresaw the Three Pure Ones' fate: the Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect faced peril, the Immortals of the Jie Sect were doomed, and the Three Pure Ones ultimately suffered internal strife, their lineage declining. Taibai originally intended to transform into human form and travel west, but the Three Pure Ones were too "enthusiastic," leaving him no choice but to become their disciple. Furthermore, his Geng metal essence was too strong, causing an imbalance in the Five Elements. Therefore, to balance the Five Elements and for his own future, Taibai had to "actively" leave the mountains and cause trouble. Using his foresight, he sought opportunities and accumulated merit while simultaneously utilizing the resources of the Three Teachings for cultivation. Unbeknownst to him...

After her spiritual root was taken away and she awakened her memories of her past life, Yun Shu discovered that she was actually the control group for the beloved female lead, whose life was full of tragedy and who was just a tool to highlight the female lead until her death.

Yun Shu, a hardcore gamer, said:
My spiritual root was taken away? No problem, I'll just get a top-grade spiritual root.
Top three sects? Doesn't matter, I'll just build the number one sect.
The beloved female lead? Whatever, I'm a god among millions of players.

Six years later, the political situation in the Great Gan court stabilized somewhat, and the Empress came with her child, asking Li Xian to take care of her. Faced with a porcelain doll-like little girl, Li Xian gladly accepted and began his childcare life. "Daddy, is this Xuan paper? It feels so soft to write on, a thousand times better than the bamboo slips in the palace!" "Daddy, I want to eat beggar's chicken!" "Daddy, what are the Edict of Grace and the Imperial Examination System?" "Daddy, Mommy's here!" After some time, Li Xian and the Empress's eyes met. What?! His wife is the Empress?!

So, during the Battle of Guandu, when all the generals were no match for Yan Liang and were defeated one after another, Cao Cao rode up to Zhang Han beside him and asked in a low voice, "Strategist, what do you think of Yan Liang?"
Zhang Han: "...insert, insert the sign to sell the head."
"The strategist is putting on his armor!!!" the vanguard cheered loudly.
Years later, when Cao Cao's confidants, such as Jia Xu and Guo Jia, talked about Zhang Han, their expressions all changed.
"His left fist is called benevolence, and his right fist is called righteousness. When he can't win an argument, he will resort to benevolence and righteousness."
“Zhang Bochang’s plans always work, after all, he would personally lead the charge after presenting his plans.”
Guo Jia: "I just want to know, who made him their strategist back then? Oh, my lord? That's truly a discerning eye and keen insight."

"I'm quitting this year's villain role!"
