   Think ghost hunting is a creepy, hardcore adventure? This guy's got the comedy and thriller twist! He's ostensibly a rookie exorcist sent down the mountain by his master for training, but he's actually the reincarnation of the Fengdu Emperor. Haunted villas, disrupted feng shui, monsters causing trouble? He'll just have to catch them!

   This is a post-apocalyptic survival story featuring a few mediocre Taoist priests. The enemy (Zerg) is powerful and intelligent. These purely human Taoist priests gradually grow stronger using their limited Taoist skills. There's no system involved, only a few superpowers (obtained by consuming enemies). It's not a wish-fulfillment story; the ending sees Earth still in the Zerg's clutches, and their counterattack only manages to secure sunlight. It's a very unique story; you might want to check it out if you like that kind of thing.

    The author, a long-time researcher of religious history, meticulously adheres to historical records such as the *History of Ming* and the *Veritable Records of the Ming Taizu*, and verifies Daoist classics like the *Daozang*, *Longhushan Zhi*, and *Maoshan Zhi*, as well as local county gazetteers. The content is highly rigorous, beginning in the 22nd year of the Hongwu reign (1380) and connecting to many real historical events, such as the murder of Prince Lu, the self-immolation of Prince Tan, Lan Yu's conquest of the local chieftains, the rebellion of Li Shanchang, and Prince Yan's northern expedition. It also aligns with many Daoist secret histories. Without a certain level of cultural literacy and historical background, it may be difficult to understand.
