When Ling Ye opened his eyes again, he was already trapped in an endless nightmare.
This was a prison for the dead, and also a ladder to godhood.
A haunted house cursed with ceaseless rain, a death-trap train trapped in an endless cycle of zombie hordes, the Shining Hotel that peered into the darkest corners of the human heart... Countless twisted versions of classic horror settings had become merciless proving grounds.
Welcome to the Abyss System, dead ones.
Rule One: Fight to survive.
Rule Two: Figure out the rules.
Rule Three: ...Or become one of them.
Those traveling with him:
Su Mu, gentle and healing, yet decisive when it mattered;
Xie Fei, a man of shifting loyalties who walked the knife's edge;
and countless more “teammates” and “enemies” struggling to survive in despair.
Ling Ye calmly scrutinized everything. His goal was clear and merciless:
Tear through the fog, decipher the rules, and reach the end.
Even if his hands were stained with blood and curses,
even if he had to question the very meaning of the gods.
Survival? Redemption? Or... taking their place?
When familiar faces like Sadako, Tomie, and Kayako descended in new and terrifying forms,
when the so-called “path to godhood” proved full of thorns and lies,
could they fight for a sliver of hope in these terrifying instances, and perhaps even...
slay the gods and become gods themselves?
