A frail and often ill son of a wealthy merchant unexpectedly embarked on the path of cultivating immortality while seeking a way to prolong his life! During the Tang Dynasty's Golden Age, the world was at peace, the climate was favorable, and the people lived in tranquility. One thousand years later, demonic beings devoured the sky, demonic ghosts rampaged, and sorrow-filled cries resonated everywhere. The Journey to the West reappeared, the Great Sage fought against the heavens, the Heavenly Stem descended to the mortal world, reincarnating anew. Mysterious transmigrations and reincarnations, reality and illusions intermingling, truly extraordinary! Is it just a dream predicted in the prophecy? Or a reality that has yet to occur? Can he eradicate the predestined demonic barrier, eliminate the catastrophes of the Three Realms that have yet to occur, and save the people from utter destruction?
This novel is well written with regular chapter updates to keep you interested. The story develops at a good pace and the characters are all very relatable, like real ordinary folks. The world of 'In Times of Corona' is one we can all relate to. It's family based with a message of love at the heart of the story. It's quite gritty with an strong element of urban social realism so not for you if you are looking for an escapist fantasy romance. It reminds me of an English soap opera like 'Eastenders'! Love it well worth a read.
