"In the far East, there exists a strange little shop that has repeatedly refused Michelin three-star ratings. The prices are exorbitant; a bowl of fried rice with soup costs 288 RMB, oh, and it includes a side of kimchi, yet even so, long queues form. They don't accept reservations, only walk-ins, and countless people arrive by private jet specifically to queue, though of course, no parking or landing spots are provided. The service is appalling; customers are expected to serve themselves, clear their own dishes, and even wipe the tables! Good heavens, this owner must be insane." —Michelin Guide Foodie group, everyone is welcome to join and chat: 526149614 Dragon Tiger Fight Main Group: Subscribe to all accounts to join! 577415455 Cai Mao appears unpredictably~

When Ning Ye's hair turned white, his face weathered, and his lifespan exhausted, he personally buried himself in the ancient coffin. After his body was plunged into endless darkness, he opened his eyes again and found himself back in a dream three hundred years ago. That great era had not yet begun, and the faces of those who had died for him were still vivid in his memory. For him, this was the best of times. With the destruction of countless worlds and the struggle for power between different planes, it's a matter of either advancing or retreating. The once-familiar worlds of immortals and martial arts, and the merging of fantasy planes, all vie for the position of overlord when all worlds are unified. In the battle for supremacy among all races and the clash of geniuses, countless chosen ones of destiny perished. Ning Ye, reborn into this world, seeks to lead the planes of the Dharma-ending Age against the tide, advancing into one plane after another. To build the strongest sect, forge an unparalleled dynasty, and establish the highest holy land—in this life, I, Ning Ye, only wish to rule the world. P. S.: My old book, "Rebirth of the Martial God," is now complete.
