A mysterious bronze mirror draws Shi Qian into another world overrun by demons and ghosts, where the Daoist arts manifest their power. The mirror’s legacy of command spells becomes the foundation of his survival: his words become law, commanding wind, thunder, water, and fire!
>From rescuing the orphan Cui’er to taking in the naive snake demon Bai Lan’er, Shi Qian gradually forms bonds with those around him. To protect this hard-won warmth and find a foothold in this perilous world, he joins the Bureau of Celestial Surveillance and travels through a strange and wondrous realm under the name Wang Jiaxiang.
The flying corpse of Black Wind Gorge, the black river serpent demon of the Luo River, the nightmare of Huang Village, the sinister curse of the Pyu Kingdom… and even a ferocious mountain lord who has practiced shapeshifting for a century! Time and again, he faces danger, and time and again, his command spells destroy evil. The spoils of slaying demons become sharp blades in his hands and protective treasures for his companions.
But the road ahead is long, and evil spirits are endless. With Cui’er and Bai Lan’er at his side, Shi Qian journeys south, slaying dragon demons, awakening bamboo spirits, visiting immortal sects, and refining magical treasures… Wherever his commands point, demons and monsters flee! This is a transmigrator’s fight for survival, and a legendary tale of warmth and protection written amid the demons and evils of another world.
