A honey trap conspiracy sends Zhao Buzhu, a low-ranking disciple of the Demonic Cult, tumbling into an apocalypse-ravaged world overrun by zombies.
With spiritual energy depleted, this apocalypse is no place for cultivators. But the corrupt energy produced by killing zombies becomes nourishment for the Heavenly Silkworm Demonic Art.
The Heavenly Silkworm Silkstep carries him across rooftops, while Heavenly Silkworm threads reap the zombie hordes. He grows rapidly amid the tide of corpses.
Hypocritical shelter fortresses, terrifying mutated corpse-monsters, and human factions at each other's throats: danger follows him like a shadow.
He witnesses every facet of the apocalypse, hunting zombies to improve his cultivation while protecting the few companions he has.
Just as he begins to thrive in the apocalypse, a totem from the Demonic Cult of his previous life reveals that the two worlds may be connected.
Revenge and survival, the past and the present: he will make his own choice.
