The neighboring novel, "Playing the Hidden Boss in a Cyber Cultivation World", is currently being serialized. Feel free to add it to your collection~
Zhou Yun, a muralist, is invited to take part in an operation to subdue a living mural.
Legend has it that the Demon-Subduing Transformation in the royal temple comes to life at midnight. A skeptic, she expects to just watch the excitement and earn a hefty fee on the side. But when she arrives, she realizes things aren't looking good.
Not only does she become the spectacle instead of watching one, the mission is extremely difficult, and earning that astronomical fee seems nearly impossible.
Worst of all, if she fails, she has to stay and work as a laborer for the rest of her life.
After her faith crumbles and her worldview is shattered, Zhou Yun declares:
For money, for freedom, I'll give it everything I've got!
An eerily strange eminent monk, a mysterious living mural, inscrutable figures within the painting, teammates with their own agendas, and a recurring dream.
Everything seems to point to the verse drifting through the dream's windblown sand:
"I urge you to drink one more cup of wine. West of Yang Pass, you will have no old friends." (Wang Wei, "Seeing Yuan Er Off to Anxi")
