Hogwarts: From Novice to Ascension

What would it be like to practice immortal cultivation at Hogwarts?

Lin Yuan: "Thanks for asking. Just boarded the Express, and this already feels downright criminal. I'm a bona fide transmigrator, complete with an immortal cultivation legacy, the Supreme Scripture of Transcendent Detachment. My talent? Soul strength at MAX. My drawback? Earth has no mana. So I came to the magical world... only to discover there's still no mana."

With no path to cultivation, his future looks uncertain.

Until he discovers that, although his peerless soul cannot absorb mana directly, it can use the entire magical world as one enormous lever to pry things into motion!

From then on, things at Hogwarts begin to go wildly off-script.

Dumbledore: "I have never witnessed such astonishing talent for wandless, nonverbal magic. Why, he is Merlin reborn!"

Snape: "Can someone explain why he can make the ingredients in a cauldron separate and combine themselves just by looking at them?!"

Voldemort: "He says my soul is fragmented like a QR code. What in the world is a QR code?"

While the entire wizarding world reels in astonishment, Lin Yuan himself is deeply troubled.

All he wants is to quietly treat magic as another branch of the Great Dao of Immortality, devote himself to its study, and use what he learns to find his way back to immortal cultivation.

So why do tactless fools keep interrupting his observations of that fascinating specimen of soul parasitism, "Harry Potter"?

"Honestly, you're all far too noisy." Closing Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Lin Yuan sighs, raises his eyes, and looks toward Malfoy, who has come to his door looking for trouble.
