If there is no underworld in this world, then let the Impermanence God take a trip to the mortal realm.
If no one can protect future generations in a chaotic age, then let ancestors dead for many years break out of their coffins and return.
Li Xiao, a top-tier video game guide writer, obtains a mysterious game that lets him exchange for character cards, upgrade skills, and enter different expansions. As long as he completes missions, he can keep developing his characters and unlock higher levels of supernatural power.
And so, the powerful families of the imperial capital see the color of a soul for the first time.
In the chaos of the Beiyang era, a bandit stronghold that has held sway for years also faces a harbinger of death, impervious to blades and bullets and unharmed by raging flames.
Li Xiao thinks he's simply challenging high-difficulty dungeons, investigating hidden storylines, and aiming for the highest score. But the real-world financial magnates, warlords, and powerful elites have already begun to fear the identities he has painstakingly created.
No one knows where the legends began.
And no one knows that behind the extraordinary beings who make the world tremble, there is only a gamer holding a controller.
