Years later, as Du Fengze stands in the Realm of Heaven, he looks back on the day before he was reborn into the apocalypse. The crisis had already begun to show itself that day. What drove people mad was not zombies, but something far more terrifying: alien beasts. Yet humanity soon gained a way to fight back. People with special constitutions could be parasitized by alien beasts, gaining powers known as the Altered.
As he struggles to survive, Du Fengze draws ever closer to the truth of the world.
The Nine Realms refers to multiple worlds, such as the Alien Realm and the Realm of Heaven. An apocalypse spanning the Nine Realms offers a different kind of end-of-the-world story.
The cover features the heroine, not that kid Du Fengze.
