The Great Dao Walks Alone in the Shrouding World

The male lead was once a corporate drone, a cog in the machine. He majored in computer science at university, but his abilities were nothing special. In his spare time, he liked studying history, traditional Chinese medicine, and Daoist classics. Since he neglected his proper work, his software development skills were mediocre, and he eventually joined a mediocre outsourcing company. He worked 996 every day, and often 007. In the end, he was close to dropping dead from overwork. But life is unpredictable: even then, the outsourcing company fired him. To keep himself alive, he took his severance pay and headed to a remote mountain temple to recuperate. As it turned out, even this run-down temple concealed a formation that transported him to a vast world much like Shrouding the Heavens. Thus began his path to immortality. He soon discovered that in this world, special constitutions and Sacred Bodies were as common as dogs, extraordinary physiques could be found on every street, and there were all kinds of Chosen Ones and transmigrators who were sly schemers just like him. To avoid having his kidneys harvested, he had no choice but to pursue immortality with caution.
