I Don’t Want to Become a Quasi-Saint

The world of the Great Wilderness, the Nine Provinces in ruins. The Heavenly Dao is incomplete, and the seats of the sages are vacant. Lin Dun, a hunter's son at the foot of Heavenly Sword Mountain, has suffered from a strange illness since childhood: whenever the moon is full, his head throbs with unbearable pain, making him wish he were dead. But two things are hidden in his mind. The first: a soul that does not belong to this world. He comes from another civilization and knows of towering steel spires and iron birds roaring overhead, yet he has spent sixteen years as a sickly boy in this remote backwater. The second: nine glowing spheres. The nine spheres have lain dormant in the depths of his sea of consciousness for sixteen years. The first is beginning to awaken. Nine people are imprisoned inside them.
