A Hundred Demons: At Seventy, I’m Done Laying Low

A thousand years become a dream; white bones crown the tower. The Heavenly Palace presses down upon the Nine Provinces; four jutting corners stand sentinel. Jiang Han is reborn in the Tianyu Dynasty, just as demons and monsters run rampant, the people suffer terribly, and natural disasters strike without end. After a lifetime of drifting through the world, his golden finger finally arrives when he is seventy. “No matter. Seventy is the perfect age to make a go of it.” From then on, he relies on the 【Hundred Demons Compendium】 to embark on the path of demon slaying, eliminating demons and monsters along the way while unlocking one strange talent after another and rapidly advancing his cultivation. Along this path, he encounters many stories. There is a kind of demon called the mayfly, whose life lasts only a single day for a human. The ordinary, unremarkable day you take for granted is its entire lifetime. There is a kind of demon called the kamaitachi, hiding in the wind and in people’s hearts. Some demons are loyal and true; some people devour others without leaving a bone. Some are born, some die; some suffer from demon calamities, and others from human ones. Behold Jiang Han. He rides his sword on the wind, banishing demons between heaven and earth.
