[Rules-based horror + National destiny + Invincible cultivation + Dimensional overpowering + Extreme-contrast power fantasy]
Rules-based horror descends upon the real world, forcing the entire globe to take part in a national-survival trial.
When a chosen one clears a challenge, their country receives rewards of longevity and resources. When a chosen one dies, the horror manifests directly in real-world cities, leaving devastation in its wake!
China suffers an unprecedented act of sabotage. Its top fighters are in short supply, and five consecutive draws yield the old, the weak, the sick, and the disabled. Five cities become forbidden zones, and the nation’s fate hangs by a thread!
On the sixth draw, the System turns its “malice” up to the max, picking a good-for-nothing university student with congenital heart disease: Wang Teng.
Faced with a dungeon where death is guaranteed from the start, the original Wang Teng is scared to death on the spot!
Foreigners mock China relentlessly. The whole nation despairs, ready to sound the alarm of national ruin.
Yet just as the entire world thinks China is about to fall...
Wang Teng, the Northern Emperor of the Canglan Realm, who died amid the tribulation of the Nine Heavens, opens his eyes in the body that had been cold and lifeless!
Looking at the flickering fluorescent lights and the bloody rules written on the wall, the Great Emperor furrows his brow:
“A wasteland of a lower realm, where spiritual energy has run dry? A shoddy, crudely made illusion formation?”
From then on, viewers around the world watch China’s livestream and sink into deep self-doubt.
Foreign viewers go crazy: “What the fuck! Why can a human mop blow up an indescribable horror?!”
Foreign officials break down: “We’re still congratulating ourselves for getting a single bottle of life potion, and China’s already been blessed with a top-grade spirit vein from the heavens and started cultivating immortality nationwide?!”
Wang Teng sneers: “This Emperor acts as he pleases. Why should I explain myself to anyone? What’s the next dish?”
