Sinister, uncanny domains, all manner of demons and ghosts, man-eating monsters, and evil gods worshipped in obscene rites... Endless dangers fill this world, and humanity can only cling to life, desperately seeking a slim chance to survive.
Even in endless darkness, a faint candlelight will appear. One by one, the Awakened cultivate immortality for the people of the world, turning themselves into beacons to dispel the darkness, guide the masses, and secure a future for all living beings.
Yet even clear water turns black when it draws too near ink... And it is no longer only the uncanny that prey on people...
Jiang Ming silently surveys this world. Should he become one of the Awakened, cultivate diligently to save the people, and then unknowingly be assimilated by the uncanny? Should he simply fall and become an unrestrained monster? Or should he do nothing and barely cling to life?
Only children have to choose. I choose none of the above!
Jiang Ming decisively chooses orthodox cultivation! In his hands, a proper cultivation world unfolds in simulations. He transmigrates through them and gains everything the cultivation world has to offer: the boundless radiance of Golden Cores and Nascent Souls, endless magical treasures and talismans, and sword arts and divine abilities that break through the dawn like thunder.
After countless years, the Immortal King reigns above, while evil gods and ghost emperors flee in disarray.
