I only lied about you having an Emperor’s bearing, yet you actually became one?

Shen Ming transmigrated into a xianxia fantasy world and was cast aside by his noble clan. He concealed his identity to enter Xuantian Sect, where he unexpectedly awakened the unique Heart of All Paths. This innate power lets reality bend to his will and allows him to cultivate truth from falsehoods—yet it bears a fatal flaw: he cannot grasp sarcasm or hidden mockery, and believes nearly everything others tell him. To cover up his mediocre natural talent, the Elder of Merit Transmission fabricated a fake identity for him, claiming he bore the Primordial Saint Physique and Supreme Dao Embryo. The elder also invented a non-existent heaven-tier cultivation manual called Boundless Divine Art to fool him, planning for Shen Ming to fail at cultivation for a few years before leaving the sect gracefully. But Shen Ming took every word as absolute truth. He devoted himself to practicing the fake manual and actually condensed Boundless True Qi from it. When others falsely praised him as bearing the aura of an Emperor and destined for Sagehood, their hollow flattery and provocation stirred grand Dao omens around him, paving his way to attain the Dao beneath the heavens.
