In 2089 AD, the "Purple Mist" swept across the world. Half of humanity mutated into bloodthirsty "bone-eating beasts." Skyscrapers were reduced to ruins, and once-prosperous cities were turned into wastelands that no one should approach.
Chen Mo, an ordinary college student struggling to survive in the ruins, unexpectedly awakened the "apocalyptic immortality system" when he was besieged by bone-eating beasts and was on the verge of death. The novice task of killing the first-level bone-corroding beast not only allowed him to obtain life-saving spiritual energy and the basic skill "Qi-Entraining Technique", but also opened his path from an ant to an immortal.
In the wasteland, resources are scarce and human nature is distorted. He hid his edge, used the system's "camouflage mode" to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger, and developed in a low-key manner in the survivor base - not only finding scarce medicinal materials for Su Qingyue to solve the difficulties of the base, but also helping Lin Xi's team with special powers to defeat the beast tide, and even stepped forward when Chu Mengyao fell into family infighting. When the world thought he was just a survivor with some strength, he had quietly broken through the foundation building and golden elixir, and held the ancient inheritance Ye Zihan in his hand, which also revealed the shocking secrets of the purple mist and the bone-eating beast.
From the struggle for supplies at the Dawn Base, to the exploration of the fairy trails in the Kunlun ruins, to the interstellar battle against the Bone Eclipse Stars, Chen Mo used the system as his blade and his immortal cultivation as his shield to carve a way out in the wasteland strewn with corpses. He not only wants to protect the beauties around him, but also leads the remaining humans to rebuild civilization in a desperate situation, and finally ascends to the position of Immortal Lord, allowing the light of the Chinese dragon vein to shine on this desolate land again.
