The End of Dharma 40K: My Evil God Wife Feeds Me to Prove My Emperorship

Summary [End of Dharma Cultivation] × [Grassroots Rise] × [Folk Ritual] × [Mysterious and Bizarre] — [The Chosen One Has Been Slain, New Methods Unlocked!] [Key Elements: Soul Swap, Evil God Wife, Chaotic Heavenly Dao, Dark Folk Customs...] [Detected Fatal Damage, Soul Transmigration Reactivated...]... Since the great catastrophe a thousand years ago, the cultivation world has entered the End of Dharma era. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth has dried up, magical treasures have lost their power, countless high-level cultivators have perished, and mortals are as insignificant as ants. Subsequently, four bizarre Heavenly Daos descended upon the world one after another. Under inexplicable interference, new energy sources were gradually discovered: tar, blood saltpeter, magnetic crystals, stone aura... The old cultivation order was ended in the urbanization process dominated by energy civilization. Resource accumulation and sect monopolies brought new prosperity and chaos to the world. ...A celestial scripture brought Li Mingyu into contact with his "wife" on Earth. In their years together, Li Mingyu received the protection of an evil god, and by slaying the Chosen One, he continuously unlocked heaven-defying methods. Bizarre and fantastical folk rituals, enigmatic celestial lords from beyond the heavens, mind-stealing whispers of inner demons… Fueled by both madness and reason, Li Mingyu strays further and further down the path of cultivation, confronting the four great chaos realms and ultimately becoming the Immortal Emperor who corrects the world's collapsing fate. ————PS: The setting can be understood as a Chinese Warhammer game, blending cultivation and folklore. The worldview is roughly a universe of four small-time vendors without an emperor, unfolding gradually as the story progresses.
