I Managed To Become A Saint In The Prehistoric Times

If you are a fan of Tiên Hiệp and the grand, mystical lore of Chinese mythology, I Managed To Become A Saint In The Prehistoric Times by Wu Suo is an essential addition to your reading list. Set against the backdrop of the chaotic Prehistoric era, this novel masterfully reinvents the origin stories of the universe, plunging readers into a world where gods, dragons, and phoenixes clash in epic, blood-soaked battles.

The story follows Jiang Che, an protagonist who finds himself an unexpected observer—and eventually a participant—in the infamous Long Han Calamity. What makes this novel truly stand out is its clever take on the "transmigrator" trope. Rather than immediately rushing to conquer the world, Jiang Che starts as a humble fisherman by an infinite ocean, witnessing the cataclysmic events of the past unfold right before his eyes. This grounded perspective creates a brilliant contrast between the protagonist’s grounded human sensibilities and the earth-shattering power of ancient mythical beasts.

Jiang Che’s journey from a bewildered bystander to a powerhouse aiming for Sainthood is both addictive and satisfying, rewarding those who enjoy intricate power systems and deep lore.
