Way of the Devil
Demons, devils, ghosts and monsters Plunge the mortals weak in horrors; Arms of gods and blades of devils, Shroud the world in untold evils. Lu Sheng was an ordinary civil servant in the modern world. After waking from a drunken stupor one day, he found himself trapped in a dangerous world where demons, ghosts and supernatural monsters terrorize the land. In this world, ordinary mortals live in dark fear and helplessness, without any means to fight against the supernatural. As Lu Sheng struggles desperately for survival, he stumbles upon a game mod he had designed for a mobile phone app in his previous life. It unexpectedly becomes his special ability, which enables him to instantly level up any skill he learns, albeit at a cost. Thus, Lu Sheng begins his journey, striving for power beyond the reach of a mortal as he treads the way of the Devil…
Countless corpses of Crimson Whale Sect's guards lay strewn across the deck, deep-red blood seeping out from them. Their blood gathered into streams and flowed out via the drainage canals on both sides of the deck.
Lu Sheng lifted his head. His gaze penetrated through the heap of corpses to the silhouette of a figure cloaked in a blood-red hue.
In the moment when his gaze landed on the figure, his pupils shrank immediately.
"Heeheeheee…
You’ve really made it… painful for me…" the lady under the umbrella stood at the edge of the ship’s helm on one leg. A trifle more and she would fall into the water. Despite the gale, however, she did not budge a single inch. Only her blood-red dress billowed behind her in the wind.
"Heeheeheee… so you’re… Sect Master Lu? So you’re the new Sect Master…"
Another red figure under an umbrella materialized to his right, as if from thin air.
Right after that, red figures kept popping up all around Lu Sheng like multiplying clones.
