“No matter how good your kung fu is, you still have to watch out for a kitchen knife.” The “ultimate anti-magic weapon,” a brick, makes a mockery of every flashy spell: in the face of its profound truth that “all magic is nothing,” they’re nothing but paper tigers.
Chen Jieyu, a street thug, transmigrates into the body of a hundred-year-old Daoist priest. What he inherits is not only the old priest’s body, but also a century’s worth of debts of karma and fated enemies the priest unknowingly accumulated, without even realizing it himself. The Daoist sects, ghost cultivators, foreign occult practitioners such as the Nine Chrysanthemum School, southwestern witchcraft practitioners, and spirit mediums are all stirring into action.
With a single brick, Chen Jieyu breaks every spell and uncovers a century-old feud between his country and its enemies in the modern world of the supernatural.
Interesting!
