Synopsis
Damn! I Somehow Became the Lotus Lantern That Lights the Myriad Worlds of the Mortal Realm? Wait, Where's the Wick?
Mo Si, a passionate young man from the modern era, did a good deed and never expected such a “generous” reward. A raging fever sent him straight back to the primordial age when heaven and earth were first formed. At last, this heaven-sent opportunity had come his way!
But the position the Heavenly Dao assigned him was downright absurd. Other transmigrators became primordial gods and demons or ancient mighty beings, while he became... a lamp.
That's right, the very Lotus Lantern famed as a “chaos treasure, Guanyin's magic weapon, and the source of light for myriad worlds”!
Mo Si: “???” The material, the shimmering light, the sheer prestige... Maybe this isn't so bad? Wait! Where's my wick?! Where did that huge, bright, scorching wick of mine go?!
And so the strangest scene in the annals of the primordial world unfolded:
While the titans of the Dragon-Han calamity fought each other to the death, and future sages struggled to comprehend the Dao, the Lotus Lantern, which should have been sacred beyond compare, was tumbling wildly across the vast wilderness, riding the currents of chaos.
“Help! I can't shine without a wick!”
“Junior Sister Nuwa! Big Brother Fuxi! Do me a favor and rub up a spark to use as a temporary wick, will you?”
“Dao Ancestor! Dao Ancestor, could you put out a ‘Missing Wick’ notice while you're giving your lecture? Reward negotiable!”
This is the story of a Lotus Lantern (who considers itself) noble and aloof, searching for its lost “soul” in the primordial world, trying its best to “self-ignite” and going around picking fights with future big shots
