Synopsis

Fang Qing is an utterly ordinary “nonbeliever.” To make his lies more convincing, he gives himself all the right psychological cues. But sometimes, believing a lie is itself the ultimate act of faith! As his lies come true, Fang Qing gains a power of belief all his own: “Embrace.”

Individuals have beliefs, and so do groups and even nations. A disordered system of beliefs can transform the world, and every adventurer shares the goal of resolving and conquering these “Domains of Belief.”

As Fang Qing ventures deeper into these domains, his abilities continue to evolve: imitation, dispersal, deconstruction, reconstruction. The power of Embrace goes far beyond that. Even the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams controlled by the voice that once awakened him, “Fuxi,” are only one aspect of Embrace’s power.

“No transmigration,” “no System,” “not invincible,” “not a power fantasy.”

A fresh take on gaining power. An ordinary person who supports the team and does the thinking, growing steadily. Experience the charm of growth through the most grounded ordinary-person perspective.

Any Traditional Novels?

Novels these days are all about subverting expectations, and the random side characters have no brains at all. The plot is either painfully awkward or makes everyone stupid. They can't think straight the moment they see a woman. Total horndogs. The authors have an idea but can't write it out. Traditional stories are better.
