Synopsis

Just after being transmigrated into a world of immortal cultivation, Zhang Wei naively believed he'd struck gold!

But who could blame him?

All those web novels he read depicted that after an average Joe with no attachments to his previous world transmigrated into a body with the same name, he'd become the greatest legendary being after countless thrilling adventures alongside the assistance of a mighty System!

And... he fulfilled all those criteria!

Unfortunately, those wishful thoughts vanished after seeing his reflection in the water.

No...it wasn't because his looks remained impressively unimpressive.

It was due to the two words in block capitals that hovered just above his head:

[BACKGROUND CHARACTER]

I just hope that author keeps updating the novel as all the other novel with ordinary protagonist are lost into oblivion[img=update][img=update][img=update][img=update][img=update][img=update][img=update][img=update][img=update][img=update][img=update][img=update]

(Slightly spoilery review, but not really a spoiler) Good novel very enjoyable. The Mc is a transmigrator and more or less the typical cautious cowardly protagonist, but in my opinion its done in such a way where its not overly irritating and fits the novel. After all he is a background character so it makes sense and meshes well with his system's abilities. Besides the Mc the other characters have been given enough time to grow to a point where I at least have an inkling of each of them, although it would probably take a number of more chapters to make each of them more distinct. (talking about the side characters here) The development of the story can be considered slow, but I find it to be a good pace for a background character, naturally for protagonist speeds it does feel lacking but in the context of the novel its well paced. World Background is quite good so far, obviously its not all that fleshed out since the protagonist has stayed in the Sect for the entirety of the novel up to this point, but the Sect feels real at least which is more than I can say for most Xianxia. (although it still has a lot of the blatant Xianxia Sect stereotypes but rather than a flaw I'd say that's more played as a comedic aspect/the world purposefully being like a Xianxia novel.) To conclude this novel is a solid 4-5 stars, the only reason the score is as low as it is, is because of how infrequently its updated. I do recommend reading it though if you'd like a change from a traditional Xianxia, and are all right with the fact that the novel rarely update.
