A Rented Room Encounter: The Human Emperor's Legacy

During the lowest point in his life, veteran otaku Huang Yujun stays up all night, only to wake and discover that a [Human Emperor Cultivation System] has bound itself to his phone. In this modern city, where spiritual energy has dried up, he is forced to embark on a ridiculous path of immortal cultivation from his tiny rental apartment. Drawing qi into his body and cleansing his marrow produces a stench so foul it knocks out his roommate. The aura he gives off without realizing it even makes the school bully back down without a fight. The campus belle, Ouyang Binger, starts seeing him in a new light, while a cold warning from the System on his phone tells him that a “purge squad” is already on the move.

As he faces a deadly pursuit, the only thing he can rely on is the lazy yet imposing soul of the Human Emperor within him. Huang Yujun must use his otaku’s way of thinking to make sense of ancient cultivation techniques, struggling to cultivate in the narrow spaces between classrooms and dorm rooms.

This is a clash between a modern, easygoing soul and ancient laws of cultivation. Watch an ordinary otaku temper his heart amid the muddy world of mortals, grow stronger in the midst of danger, and ultimately write his own urban legend.
