Synopsis

Chen Ling scrapes together a living collecting bones at the Nuo Ritual Bureau, which keeps everyone in line, dragging a fake locust-wood leg behind him. Then, while trying to save his closest friend, he performs the first “wrong dance,” and the world splits open. As he flees, twelve strange beings awaken inside him one after another, and the cruel truth of his past is laid bare. In the end, at the winter solstice altar, he scatters all 206 bones in his body, transforming them into seeds of dance that fill the sky. With the most complete “wrong,” he wins the freedom to dance for generations to come.

The Pinnacle of Traditional Fantasy

I'd like to read something similar to Qiang Hai Qing Yuan. Fantasy and magic, survival and rebirth, inspirational romance, cultivation and adorable pets, transmigration and imaginative plot twists.
