[Everything may change before the story begins]
The strongest evil cultivator among humanity, master of unorthodox arts, king of shortcuts, first to speedrun ascension, and the cultivation genius who broke through the tribulation stage faster than anyone in history...
Wen Yening failed to ascend.
But the eighty-one bolts of heavenly lightning didn't reduce Wen Yening to ashes. Instead, they sent him a thousand years into the future, to the twenty-first century.

A new consultant has joined the Special Operations Team of the Bureau of Strange Investigations, a subsidiary of the Alliance Security Department.
The bizarre incidents and powerful, ferocious beasts that once left everyone helpless have finally met their harshest master.
Mysterious urban legends?
Terrifying evil gods making a comeback?
Ancient divine artifacts running amok?
Beasts listed in the Classic of Mountains and Seas appearing in the world?
Wen Yening: "Line up and register, one at a time. Hey, you there, what's your name, and what page of the Classic of Mountains and Seas are you on?"
A certain beast: "...I'm, I'm not in the Classic of Mountains and Seas."
Wen Yening: "The Record of Searching for Spirits? The Record of Strange Things? Miscellaneous Morsels from Youyang? Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio? Or is it in the latest release, Strange Tales of the Alliance City?"
A certain beast: "I'm... I'm not in any of them."
Wen Yening put down his pen, rolled his wrists, and stood up with a smile.
"A nameless, unknown monster won't give me much merit even if I seal it away. It'd be more worthwhile to capture it and refine it into a pill."
The spirits and beasts: "Immortal Venerable, spare us!!!"
