[Partly Alternate-History Supernatural Horror Revival]+ [Ensemble Cast]+ [Superpowers]
Hundreds of years ago, the supernatural descended, devastating all life within the realm. From their humble beginnings, humanity learned to draw spiritual power into their bodies, created spiritual arts, established the Spirit Bureau, and quelled calamities to safeguard their lands. Lu Yu, who grew up in the Hanshan Orphanage, awakens to a spiritual sequence through a twist of fate. Unfamiliar memories keep resurfacing. Faced with the rift between past and present, increasingly rampant supernatural creatures, and a game unfolding move by move, what path will Lu Yu take?
