Chinese Name: 道诡异仙

Summary: The story follows Li Huo Wang, a 14-year-old high school student with severe mental illness, who can cross between the real world and a grotesque cultivation realm called Da Nuo. In the real world, he’s confined to a mental hospital, where doctors dismiss the other world as a hallucination. In Da Nuo, he’s a disciple of the sinister Dan Yangzi, initially used as a “medicine primer” for alchemy. Li’s rare “Heart Element” (Xin Su) physique allows him to manifest thoughts into reality and shuttle items between worlds, but it fuels his mental instability, blurring the line between reality and illusion.

As Li navigates Da Nuo, he encounters bizarre entities, twisted immortals, and factions like the Ao Jing Sect, White Lotus Sect, and Sit-Forgetting Path. His journey involves brutal battles, self-mutilation to harness powers (like sacrificing organs for the Five Elements Leap), and alliances with characters like Bai Lingmiao, his wife in Da Nuo, and Zhuge Yuan. The central conflict revolves around the invasion of Bai Yujing, a higher-dimensional realm governing heavenly laws, by the foreign deity Fu Sheng Tian, disrupting the balance of divine powers like Ji Zai (clarity and confusion), Kui Ta (death), Dou Lao (lies), and Ba Hui (pain). Li, burdened by his Heart Element and mental turmoil, evolves from a confused youth to a key figure in saving Bai Yujing, ultimately ascending as Ji Zai, the deity of confusion, after defeating Fu Sheng Tian by absorbing all heavenly laws. His story is a harrowing exploration of madness, identity, and cosmic horror.
