Me in the World of Shanhai

This is a mythical world. There are no Systems, no status screens, and no stats. Everything follows the world's own rules: the longer an exotic beast lives, the larger it grows and the stronger it becomes. A century-old beast starts at over ten meters tall. By a thousand years, it may reach dozens or even hundreds of meters. Those over ten thousand years old are walking natural disasters, while those a hundred thousand years old are legendary beings, perhaps as large as a mountain.

But there are a very few exceptions. Some individuals do not grow larger as their cultivation increases, and remain small. They are extraordinarily rare, and far stronger than others of the same rank. They are the opponents every hunter least wants to face. A small body means more concentrated power, greater speed, and a harder fight.
