Your First-Year Summer Break: Hunting Ghosts and Cultivating at the Funeral Home

[Torturing Ghosts and Slaying Demons] [Ruthless and Decisive] [Bureau 749] [No Showing Off and Slapping Faces]

The protagonist, Lin Ming, dies unexpectedly after graduating from high school and transmigrates to another world undergoing a spiritual qi revival. He was supposed to be reborn as a divine tree, but through a special intervention by Lilith, the planet's core, Lin Ming becomes human once again. Using the protagonist's memories, she recreates the environment he grew up in.

This world is almost identical to Earth, leaving the protagonist unsure for nineteen years whether he has been reborn or transmigrated.

The Earth core's intervention completely tips the balance between the demon race and humanity in favor of humanity. To limit the heaven-defying talent of the Azure Radiance Divine Tree inside Lin Ming, and ensure the racial imbalance won't grow too great once spiritual qi has fully revived, it deliberately creates a golden finger System to lock away his talent.

Lin Ming is exceptionally gifted. Even with his talent locked, he still raises his energy to the second low tier with nothing but the Golden Light Incantation. [The cultivation systems are almost entirely different, and power is measured by energy levels!]

Early on, the protagonist punches Japanese ghosts, kicks Sadako, and beats zombies with rebar. Relying on the spirit-preservation system, he stores the divine beasts Vermilion Bird, Yellow Qilin, White Tiger, Black Tortoise, Azure Dragon, Taotie, and Bai Ze in his five internal organs, stomach, and brain. Step by step, he goes from an ordinary college student to a powerful Chinese general who guards an entire region.

Spiritual qi in this world is more like the power of imagination. This allows Buddhism, with its vast number of believers, to manifest Buddhist deities. With these deities, Buddhism has gained the power to bring China into its Buddhist realm.

At this point, someone in Buddhism still sees the situation clearly. Using Taotie's true blood, they awaken the Azure Radiance Divine Tree inside Lin Ming. From then on, his talent awakens and his cultivation advances by leaps and bounds.
