The Kunlun Mirror of the Liao Zhai World

Chen Fu crosses into the body of a terrified scholar who was literally frightened to death, carrying with him an ancient bronze mirror. To his surprise, he discovers what seems to be a glitch in his new existence: he can toggle at will between his living human form and a yin-spirit state. His plan is simple—lie low, use this modest advantage to build a respectable name for himself, and live out a quiet, successful life. One night, a beauty appears at his door uninvited, introducing herself as Lianxiang. A few days later, another woman knocks in the dark, calling herself Miss Li. A chill runs down his spine—he recognizes these names. One is a fox spirit, the other a female ghost. And the scholar they both pursue? That would be Sang Xiao. He realizes with dread that he has landed squarely inside the world of Liaozhai—but something is deeply wrong. This is not the strange tale he remembers from the old stories. Much later, when he finally wields the Kunlun Mirror and gazes upon the true nature of the Three Realms, he comes to a terrifying revelation: there are no divine immortals or whimsical monsters here. What he sees before him is a desperate prison forged from every living being's own desires—and he himself is the one fated to shatter it.
