The days of sword practice slipped by amid sweat and repetition.
Tu Hu gradually began to grasp the simple sword moves infused with emotion. As he swung the heavy sword in his hand, the pale golden aura of protection grew ever more solid.
But the deeper his training went, the more curious he became about the old man, Cang Xuan. His curiosity only grew with time.
What kind of past had this man, who was willing to die alongside his civilization yet leave behind a shadow to pass down the "Dao," lived through?
And why had the Dream Weaver Clan perished?
What other secrets were hidden in the backstory?

"Guidance, I need you."

The entire civilization had developed through "dream simulations" conducted via a subconscious network.
Thousands of years ago, the world's development had already branched into countless paths.
At its core were four major systems.
They were the Technology Path, the Dream Weaving Path, the Spiritual Energy Path, and the Gene Path.
Researchers on the Technology Path used dreams as the most powerful simulators. They completed countless material syntheses and calculated energy formulas in dreams, then brought successful results into reality, much like virtual technology on Earth.
