[Spiritual qi revival + two male leads + golden finger + feel-good power fantasy + equally matched leads + 1v1 + career-focused]

Content warning: The protagonist is an 18-year-old boy, straightforward and a little naive at first. There may be quite a bit of description of his looks, because the author is a sucker for pretty faces.

Beautiful, carefree, blockheaded bottom × roguish, witty, wickedly charming top

Sunny teenager Xia Zhiyan has just turned eighteen and is about to start college when he accidentally transmigrates to a parallel world while crossing the street. The date is late July, 2076.

Two months later, a stream of high-energy cosmic particles known as the “Sky Rift” sweeps across Blue Star. It causes the ancient man-made seal left behind since time immemorial to collapse completely, and spiritual qi slowly begins to seep back into the world.

With a System bound to him ahead of time, he gets a head start on cultivation, seizes ancient opportunities, and rises step by step amid the coming age of supernatural upheaval.

In an age when the world has been deprived of magic for eons and spiritual qi is all but exhausted, most ancient cultivation lineages have long since died out. Yet several top reclusive families still live in seclusion, relying on their age-old inheritances.

The Xuan family has upheld its ancestral teachings for millennia, but somehow, they ended up with Xuan Jin.

His Daoist robe is always rumpled and crooked. A broken pocket watch hangs from his waist in place of a seal, and he holds an unlit incense stick between his fingers as he lounges against the doorframe. When the elders scold him, he merely raises a brow, half-lidding his dark eyes, where Daoist patterns lie hidden, and grins roguishly. “The whole world is about to be rebooted. Why stick to those rigid old rules? These Daoist bones of mine are just waiting for spiritual qi to drop right onto my head.”
