    When my brother Jingyang and I visited Sanxingdui, the moment our fingertips touched the ice patterns on the bronze sacred tree, the world spun around us, and when we opened our eyes again, we were in the cultivation world of Yiyuan. We started with a self-proclaimed "Howling Moon Wolf," a chuunibyou husky who demanded 648 spirit stones to activate his bloodline. I looked at my phone's 3% battery and the empty payment screen, and fell into deep thought. Later, we became the infamous "demolition team" of the cultivation world. I was in charge of physical exorcism, my brother was in charge of mental pollution, and the husky was in charge of… destroying the house and letting us down at crucial moments. Until the end-of-days crisis tore through spacetime, reality and illusion intertwined into a deadly mystery. Only then did I realize that this stupid dog held the last path to survival for two worlds… and its ultimate form required a five-star review to unlock?
