Failed Awakening, Summoning a Divine Beast, I Take Off On the Spot

Beside the Qinhuai River, the moonlight was like silver. Beneath the peony blossoms, Chu Qiu leaned close to the beauties, vowing to live a life of romance, drunkenly resting his head on a beauty’s lap, and laughing at the affairs of the mortal world. But fate is fickle, and in the end, he couldn’t withstand King Yama’s cold scythe. His soul, like a fallen leaf returning to its roots, was silently drawn into the depths of the Underworld.

Entering the Netherworld, he obtained the supreme treasure, the “Book of Life and Death.” One day in the Netherworld was equivalent to a thousand years in the world. When he opened his eyes again, he had already boarded a broken ship of transmigration.

At the awakening ceremony, he was full of anticipation, but failed midway. In despair, he re-entered the Netherworld, and after a bloody battle, he finally contracted the divine beast Diting.

Returning to the human world, he found that the road ahead was not as smooth as he had imagined. Former enemies, harboring resentment, stirred up trouble like venomous snakes in the dark night. Former friends, having succeeded in their awakening, discarded him like worn-out shoes, watching with cold eyes. Fortunately, the mentor showed concern, the city lord concealed for him, and the principal helped him soar.

Exotic beasts, Otherworlders, traitors, mortal enemies make the road difficult. Family, friendship, love, cherished thoughts can cross the bridge of life and death.

One man, two beasts, three cups of wine. Respect for heaven, respect for earth, respect for beauty.

I, Chu Qiu, today open the gate of heaven with beasts! I invite you all to witness!
