Ling Cage: Awaken the Twelve Talismans and Wield Countless Powers

While dusting in his father's antique shop, Yang Chen touches a black book. When he opens his eyes again, he is standing in an apocalyptic wasteland of scattered bones and endless yellow sand. A tide of Devourers is surging from the horizon, while inside him, twelve talismans light up one by one.

The Dragon Talisman lets him blast things apart, the Pig Talisman gives him laser eyes, and the Rooster Talisman lets him fly. The Dog Talisman lets him stand up completely unharmed even after being blasted into a pack of monsters. The Ox Talisman punches through a giant beast, the Horse Talisman regrows a severed arm, and the Rabbit Talisman lets him race across the desert in an entire off-road vehicle, leaving only a blur behind.

After clearing everything for miles around, a white-haired woman emerges from behind the ruins. She stares at him for a long time, her expression so complicated it is as if she knows him.

"Bai Yuekui." She holds out a hand. "The things you just killed are called Devourers. And the abilities you have... they don't come from this world."

Yang Chen takes her hand. "I know. But I can't go back for now."

Later, everyone in Dragonbone Village knows there is a Boss Yang who can fix anything, fight anyone, and is especially good at listening to Boss Bai. As for his supernatural abilities, he just says they are twelve skills passed down through his family and nothing worth mentioning.
