Everyone knew that Lin Zhou was a genius who was already facing disaster at a young age. The entire sect regarded him as the future cauldron bearer. Leaders from all the immortal sects rushed to befriend him. Even the legendary descendant of the Hehuan Sect once had an earth-shattering duel with him under the moon.
Only Lin Zhou himself knew that this legend of cultivating immortals was just a big dream from which he could not wake up.
The high expectations of his parents weighed him down; the mediocre years of being dependent on others made him the most inconspicuous person in the crowd; and the obstacles he encountered after entering society forced him to become a "defective product" in the eyes of others.
He did not dare to face the embarrassment of reality, so he built a bizarre fairy gate in his mind and molded himself into a powerful immortal cultivator. Until that day, the medical certificate was placed in front of him, and the cold words shattered all illusions - severe delusional disorder. All the ascension, duel, and sect glory were just a fantasy that he deceived himself and others.
When the fairy fog of imagination dissipates, how can that ordinary person huddled in the corner of reality pick up his broken self and face a life full of shortcomings that he has never faced squarely?
