[Folk-cultivation fantasy, comedy and absurdity, with a few little side stories woven in. Hopefully, it’ll bring a smile to your face.]
The ancient age has fallen into ruin, and the Five Revered Ones have plunged the world into chaos.
In this world, “the Dao” is a curse. Any mortal who comes into contact with it will become an indescribable evil creature.
Those who do good meet terrible ends, while evildoers live long and prosper.
To maintain this wretched balance, the laws of cause and effect selected nine supreme seats throughout the long river of history. They came to be known as the [Nine Luminaries].
The young Nian Buchun is the one who commands the [Star Luminary] in this age.
He thought this would be an epic journey to save the world.
Until he realized that the teammates bound to him against their will all seemed a little... abnormal.
Some appear compassionate on the surface, but secretly plot over the fates of all living beings.
Some look weak and easy to bully, but when they fight, they’re even more vicious than evil creatures.
“So these are the so-called saviors? They look more like a bunch of calamities to me.”
Nian Buchun sighed and put on his blue robe. If all his teammates were scheming old foxes, then he would be the one moving the pieces.
[The Secrets of the Ge Residence], [The Taint of the Talisman Sect], [The Nian Yao Upheaval]...
Along the way, he embraced the mortal world and came to understand cause and effect. In the year of Fate’s Glory, he and this band of “scheming old foxes” became the greatest legend the world had ever known.
That day, the great sun set, the bright moon lost its light, and only the stars shone brilliantly.
The world saw only a man in blue standing before the stars, side by side with those from ages past and ages yet to come.
Together, they crossed the long river of time and laid bare this world that devoured its own.
