At three in the morning, you stare at your reflection in the mirror and suddenly realize
That isn't you. It's someone else, slowly turning around to fix their gaze on your eyes.
You try to shut your eyes in terror, but your eyelids are nailed open, unable to move.
You try to run, but your feet are stuck fast to the floor. You can't take a single step.
When you finally force yourself to look up again, the figure in the mirror slowly raises a hand. A cold hand reaches straight for the space between your brows.
This isn't a nightmare or a hallucination. The realm of the dead has opened its gates to you.
Every time you fall asleep, your soul is dragged a little deeper into the abyss. Every dream is another deadly trial, a cycle of life and death balanced on a knife's edge.
The six realms of the underworld bind you layer upon layer. The eerie shadow in the mirror closes in, step by step. The chill of the night seeps into your bones, and crushing psychological pressure bears down on you. Each time you sleep, a piece of your soul is devoured. If you fail to wake up, you'll become a blind-eyed specter trapped in the mirror, condemned to wander the underworld forever, with no hope of escape.
Ma Jinghong, an ordinary man, accidentally falls into this forbidden zone between life and death. He has no overpowered golden finger, only a calm, calculating mind with which to fight for survival amid endless terror.
He traverses the underworld, faces the eerie evil lurking in the mirror, braves every trial of the six cycles of reincarnation, and sees through the rules of each realm. Time and again, he turns the tables at the brink of death.
It all begins with a mirror in a bedroom, then expands into a vast world spanning six realms. This epic, million-word saga is full of twists at every turn, with the horror dialed up to the max.
Every detail sends a chill down your spine. Every scene leaves you shivering and drenched in a cold sweat.
You think you're reading a story. But somewhere, somehow, the story has been waiting for you to fall asleep.
The gates to the realms have opened. Remember: do not dream.
