[Urban transmigration + turning the tables on a terminal illness + endless trials + parallel real-world and instance-dungeon storylines]
Shen Qingmu woke up one morning to find himself turned into a mask.
No body, no flesh and blood.
System activation successful! His memories returned. He had been gravely ill, with only a few months to live, when he unexpectedly bound himself to a Zanpakuto and gained access to instance dungeons.
He traveled between the real world and dungeons set in the depths of history, searching for the cause of his grandfather’s death and the secrets behind the Soul-Suppressing Clan.
The nine great Soul-Suppressing families of the modern world were locked in constant conflict. The rules of reality suppressed all supernatural powers, the fortunes of dynasties countered the Zanpakuto’s might, and the abyss could devour souls at any moment, but he didn’t panic in the least.
That was because every dungeon boss he killed earned him a life-extending dose of Soul-Concentrating Dew. He could also gather soul crystals to temper his blade and improve his strength.
When all nine seals of light came together, the rules of the abyss would be his to command, and countless living beings would bow before him!
