I Am a Shadow of the Old Days

Winter is cold.

Li Xiao burned the important book his father had entrusted to him.

By chance, he bound himself to a System called Olden Days.

From then on, all he had to do was read to increase his power, while the way to break through was to write a book.

But where did this power really come from?

After the nuclear war, civilization withered. The Old Ones awakened, ruling humanity in the name of the deep sea and devouring human flesh and souls.

Ordinary people drifted through life in a daze, living dull and mediocre lives.

The extraordinary lived in fear, barely clinging to life.

The closer you get to the truth, the closer you get to madness. Climbing out of one abyss only means falling into another.

In a world like this, can salvation truly exist?
