Synopsis

The miasma of Lingnan hung over Mount Cangwu like ink that would never dissolve, sealing it off completely. Liu Nanren gripped his rusted iron sword. Its tip sliced through the dense fog, revealing an old crescent-shaped scar on his wrist: the mark left fifteen years ago, when he crawled out of a mountain of corpses after Tianyu City fell.

“Your Highness, it's time to leave.” A hoarse voice came from behind him. The old minister Yuchi Chun leaned on his bamboo staff, the hair at his temples whiter than it had been three years ago. “The fishermen of Leizhou, the bandits of Cangwu, and the surviving troops of your former subordinate, General Wang, are all waiting for you to say the word.”

Looking for a Novel

The protagonist can dream things into reality, I think. It can include the Queen from Resident Evil, the technology from The Three-Body Problem, and the Gate of Eternal Life. That’s about all I can remember.
