    I stumbled upon a novel Eastern fantasy story with a very fresh premise. It abandons the traditional cultivation and monster-slaying tropes, instead building a complete world view where gods and demons coexist with humans. The male protagonist is a genius from a sect who is ambushed and falls off a cliff. He is rescued by the Holy Throne of the Thousand-Year-Old Demon Clan and awakens from a deep sleep, unlocking countless memories of past lives. While investigating his assassination attempt, he also deals with various malevolent events in the mortal world. The plot unfolds along two parallel storylines, with a relaxed and unhurried pace, and the characters are very well-developed.
