Introduction to Dustbound Journey: From Tomb Raiding to Immortality
Lu Fan, a modern graduate student in history, touches a "Dustbound Jade Pendant" covered in strange runes at an archaeological site. Caught in a temporal maelstrom by accident, he transmigrates to the Profound Abyss Continent, where immortal cultivation and ancient civilizations coexist. Ruins lie everywhere, hiding the treasures of the fallen "Xu Tian Civilization," while the spirit-devouring race lurks in the shadows, threatening to consume all spiritual energy.
Bearing the jade pendant, Lu Fan has an innate sense for ancient ruins and runes. He uses modern archaeological knowledge to solve the mechanisms in ancient tombs and scientific reasoning to interpret the mysteries of cultivation. He first meets Su Qingyue, a young woman from the Qingyun Sect, in an ancient tomb in the Blackwind Mountains. Together, they enter the cultivation world, where they also meet Yan Shisan, the Thief Saint, and A Man, the Barbarian Saintess. As a team, they search for the scattered "Seven Keys of Xu Tian."
From terrifying tombs to sect rivalries, from adventures in the wilderness to power struggles in the imperial capital, Lu Fan uses his mortal body to reshape the path to immortality. Through life-and-death trials, he and Su Qingyue fall deeply in love. When the spirit-devouring race breaks through the barriers between realms and disaster looms over the continent, he will finally uncover the ultimate secret of the jade pendant and his transmigration. Will he become the temporal anchor that saves the world, or will he remain with his beloved at the end of the immortal path? This extraordinary journey, blending tomb-raiding adventures, cultivation, and passionate romance, awaits your witness.
