A man died during the pandemic in 2020, but as he closed his eyes for the last time, something stirred in his mind. When he opened them, he discovered that he had been reborn in what appeared to be ancient China, yet he retained all his memories from the future. 

Let us follow Shen Mu, as he makes his way in a world he knows nothing about and learns the truth about the world, and his mission as a cultivator.

Can his memories of the future help in a place where magic is real? And what is that other presence in his mind?

Rebirth and Reincarnation

That night we camped on the riverbank, making a fire and hunting some game to cook. 


I had never had a trip like this in my past life. I had gone out with friends, sure. But we always visited hotels or rented apartments online. Even if most people here treated me like the second coming of Jesus Christ (or is it first coming? I get the feeling that I was reborn quite a ways before His coming) I was still part of the ‘group’. 


The only ‘odd-man-out’ was the captain, who mostly kept to himself. 


We were eating our part when I felt as if someone had walked over to my grave. I immediately stood up and watched our surroundings. “Everyone back to the boat.” 


They all looked at me as if I were crazy, but one glare from me was enough for them to grudgingly begin moving. 


Suddenly another chill came over me and I launched myself toward Ling, dragging her with me to the ground. They heard her scream and turned only to see an arrow on the ground where she had been before. 


Ambush!
