Chen Zhou transmigrates into a novel called Record of the Three Realms' Rise and Fall. He has an older twin brother, Chen Mo, whose cultivation has been held back by a seal placed on part of his abilities because of their father. As a result, Chen Mo remains stuck at the second layer of Qi Refining and cannot advance. Chen Zhou is diligent and hardworking, and he retains memories from before entering the novel, allowing him to know the general course of its story. However, for various reasons, the plot no longer unfolds as expected. Although Chen Mo is incredibly lazy, he possesses a special, cheat-like ability: gaining enlightenment while resting.
