Craftsman's Soul Ignites the World

Yin Cong, a modern apprentice craftsman obsessed with ancient techniques, unexpectedly transmigrates to a chaotic age resembling the transition between the Qin and Han dynasties. A tyrant is burning books on a massive scale to consolidate his rule, while the feudal lords wage endless wars to claim supremacy. Yin Cong accidentally discovers that the bamboo slips being burned contain techniques capable of overturning the dynasty, including a formula for making thunderclap gunpowder.

The tyrant and the feudal lords recognize the threat Yin Cong poses and see him as a thorn in their side. They repeatedly send people to hunt him down and prevent him from spreading the arts of civilization. If Yin Cong fails, the flame of civilization will be extinguished forever, leaving no hope of changing this chaotic age. And in this era torn apart by war, unifying the divided lands in a short time is an almost impossible task for Yin Cong, a weak apprentice craftsman.

To make matters worse, the chaotic society created by the feudal lords' wars and the tyrant's book burning severely restricts the spread of civilized techniques. Because of his identity, the feudal lords also mistake Yin Cong for an enemy spy and pursue him. But with his indomitable character and knowledge far ahead of his time, he overcomes one crisis after another with the help of his allies.
