Young Lin Xiao drowned while rescuing a child who had fallen into the water. Just as his soul was fading away, the [Myriad Worlds Traveler System] bound itself to him, carrying his remnant soul through a vast, interconnected Hong Kong-style universe: Republican-era Daoist magic and zombie battles, the craze for supernatural powers in the 1980s, urban legends of the 1990s, and spiritual qi revival after the turn of the millennium… Martial arts, Buddhism, demons and ghosts, and supernatural abilities all converge here. He awakens in a body brought back to life by a borrowed soul, cultivates his mind amid the chaos of the times, slays demons in the modern age, and steadily strengthens himself, step by step, until he sees through the illusory nature of the Myriad Worlds and sets out on a path to transcendence of his own.
