Lu Zhao transmigrates to a parallel world. The first thing he sees upon waking is a System announcement:
“Host detected in the 100th year of spiritual qi revival. World danger level: Extremely High. Three Human Emperors are entrenched nearby, and one Demon Emperor is approaching. Prepare for battle immediately.”
Lu Zhao draws back the curtains.
Downstairs, three older women are doing square dancing, while a little black dog sits at their feet, wagging its tail at him.
That is when he understands: spiritual qi revival is still a whole year away in this world. The System’s timestamp is a hundred years ahead.
The System has set the difficulty for a hundred years from now, while the real world is an empty lot.
From that day on, Lu Zhao begins to “cheat.”
While everyone else is worrying about next month’s rent, he is already stockpiling resources by the standards of “a hundred years from now.”
While everyone else is scrolling through short videos, he is feeding the little black dog that will awaken as a Demon Emperor until it becomes a ball.
While everyone else is waiting for spiritual qi revival, he is using the “Carefree Sect” System to gather nine people whose Dao hearts resonate with his and establish a sect.
A year later, spiritual qi revival begins.
The whole world struggles to find its footing amid the chaos. Only Lu Zhao knows:
He won this game from day one.
