[Cultivating Immortality in the City] Racing through neon-lit streets, delivering food and practicing cultivation.
On a rainy night, delivery rider Chen Fan awakens an ancient remnant soul in an old house, then practices a lost and forbidden art amid the gaps between skyscrapers.
While others cultivate with spiritual energy, he relies on the ill omens of the streets, the warmth of everyday life, and the merit he earns with every good review.
[A Heretic Cultivator with a Righteous Heart] He bears a mysterious jade that devours evil energy, yet he’s the city’s only benevolent heretic cultivator.
By day, he weaves through the alleys on his bike, rushing urgent orders. By night, he takes up his blade and cuts down hypocrites.
The forces he fights aren’t just monsters and spirits. He also stands against a decaying orthodox path that monopolizes resources while cloaking itself in righteousness.
[The Great Way of an Ordinary Man] He doesn’t soar through the skies or abandon the world to pursue immortality.
He needs to earn money for his mother’s medical bills, help his brothers when they’re in trouble, and protect the woman he loves.
His place of cultivation is in the alleys of the city village, on the back of his electric bike, and in every moment a steaming meal reaches its destination. Protecting this warm, bustling world of everyday life is his supreme path to immortality.
