[Plot Twists] [Multiple Heroines] [Slow Burn] [Not Mindless Wish Fulfillment] [Ensemble Cast] [Absurdist] [No System, at Least Not for the Protagonist]
Yun Yi was the sole surviving participant in the Second Godfall War, which took place 400,000 years ago.
After sleeping for 300,000 years, he died eight times over the following 100,000 years, then used reincarnation to return to the starting point.
During those eight lifetimes, he received messages left by his future self, who claimed that in his ninth life, he would encounter an upheaval that would bring it all to an end.
But...
"Isn't there a little too much upheaval going on?"
"Why have I been possessed?"
"Why are there so many transmigrators?"
"Why are there more demons from beyond the realms?"
"What the heck is a System?"
"You say you're the me from the past? And that I'm the reincarnation of the Demon Ancestor?"
"You say you're the me from the future? And that I have to save the world?"
Demon Lord: "Great Demon Ancestor, the Blood Ancestor and Soul Ancestor are plotting to rebel! Please come back and bring the demonic cultivators to heel."
Yun Yi: "Get lost. Call me that again, and I'll kill your whole family!"
Demon Emperor: "Great Demon Ancestor, you've killed hundreds of times more people than I have. There's no way you can turn over a new leaf now!"
Yun Yi: "What Yun Yi did has nothing to do with me, the Ancestor of the Three Phases! Besides, what you do is slaughter people indiscriminately and kill the innocent. I act decisively and kill without hesitation. How is that the same?"
