[Traditional fantasy + no System + easygoing invincible hero] (The blurb doesn’t do it justice. Please read the story.)
The dynasty is in its final years, and the court is in chaos.
The nine provinces of Great Xia are crumbling but have yet to fall. The years are bitterly cold, and people resort to eating one another.
The nine hundred and ninety-ninth year of the Great Xia calendar.
That year, an ancient imperial princess descended into the mortal world beneath a bright moon rising over the sea.
That year, the barbarians of the Southern Frontier’s Hundred Thousand Mountains rallied behind a bloodline of barbarian kings and declared themselves independent.
That year, peerless disciples emerged one after another from Taoist temples and ancient monasteries.
That year, Ning An arrived in this panicked and chaotic age, carrying a book called the Myriad Demon Register and wearing a demon-slaying saber at his waist. Thus began his hunt for demons and monsters.
Slay ten thousand demons, record them all.
Draw demonic essence from a boar demon’s core to master the arts of iron skin and forged bones.
Draw demonic essence from a monkey demon’s core to learn to fly through the air and burrow through the earth.
Draw demonic essence from the nourishing flesh of a bull demon to master the staff and cudgel.
Years later, Ning An finds life boundless and lonely as snow. He cannot help asking the immortals above, “If you insist on staying in your heavenly palaces and refuse to descend into the mortal world, then I’ll have to come looking for you myself, saber in hand!”
