From Alchemy Slave to Pill God

On the first day of the full-dive online game Danxu's launch, millions of players are trapped inside and cannot log out. If they die in the game, they die in real life too. Lin Jin, an unemployed herbalist, is among the most insignificant players. Thrown into a pill-slave camp, he has to hand over three pills every day or be whipped. Then he discovers that, in his eyes, the entire world can be broken down into data about medicinal properties. He can see the success rate of pill recipes at a glance, while others have to figure them out through insight. He can spot every degree of deviation in a furnace's heat, while others rely on feel. No flaw hidden by others can escape him. He refines pills one furnace at a time, climbing through the nine ranks of the Pill Dao. From the lowest depths of the pill-slave camp to the very pinnacle of all Danxu. Until he uncovers the ultimate secret buried beneath these ruins, the reason no player can leave.
