Description
Chu Xuan transmigrated to a fantasy world and became the young master of a powerful family. He was rebuked for misbehaving just because he sneezed during a banquet. As punishment, he was banished from the ancestral mansion and was relocated to a remote residence. He did not mind the punishment at all. He just needed a spot that could allow him to be a shut-in. With the system that would allow him to grow stronger by being a shut-in, the longer he stayed indoors, the more powerful he became. After being a shut-in for a day, he was rewarded with the Indestructible Body Technique. After being a shut-in for a month, he was rewarded with the Immovable Mountain Technique. After being a shut-in for a year, he was rewarded with the Yuxu Celestial Scripture and 100 years of cultivation. After being a shut-in for 10 years, he was rewarded with the Chaotic Indestructible Body and the Bell of Chaos. … Chu Xuan declared, “No one can make me leave my home. I like being a shut-in!”

My Thoughts on I Stayed At Home For A Century, When I Emerged I Was Invincible
This title definitely grabbed my attention, and after diving into "I Stayed At Home For A Century, When I Emerged I Was Invincible," I can see why it has a dedicated following. It's a unique take on the Xianxia genre, and while it's not without its flaws, it offers a refreshing change of pace.
First Impressions
The premise is simple: our MC, Chu Xuan, gets exiled to a manor and activates a system that rewards him for staying put. For a large portion of the story, he literally just stays at home, cultivating and scheming from afar. At first, I was worried this would get boring quickly, but the author manages to keep things interesting by focusing on the ripple effects of his actions and the growth of his disciples.
What Works Well
The biggest strength of this novel is its commitment to its core concept. The MC genuinely stays secluded, and the story finds creative ways to maintain engagement without him constantly running around and fighting. I particularly enjoyed how he manipulates events from the shadows, becoming a "hand behind the curtain." This approach feels different from the usual cultivation novel where the MC is always in the thick of things.
The comedic undertones are also a major plus. There are plenty of laugh-out-loud moments, often stemming from misunderstandings and the MC's over-the-top bluffing. The system backing up his claims adds to the absurdity, making the face-slapping scenes particularly entertaining. While the MC himself might not be the most complex character, his disciples and their stories are engaging. I found myself looking forward to their developments and how they contributed to the overall narrative.
Areas of Concern
The ending, unfortunately, seems to be a point of contention. I noticed it felt somewhat rushed and abrupt. Some readers might feel that the later parts of the novel suffer from pacing issues, with large time skips and a shift in focus towards the disciples driving the plot. In addition, I would have liked to see more development of the characters as the story went on and also for some of the earlier plot points to make a reappearance at the end of the novel.

Final Verdict
Overall, "I Stayed At Home For A Century, When I Emerged I Was Invincible" is a fun and relaxing read that offers a unique twist on the Xianxia genre. If you're looking for a light-hearted story with a powerful but low-key MC, this might be right up your alley. Just be prepared for a potentially rushed ending and don't expect deep, intricate character development.
