Survival is difficult, especially when one is surviving alone in a dangerous wilderness jungle—it is incomparably difficult!
Having struggled bitterly for so many years in the despairing, suffocating Abyss, Er Dongsheng had transformed from an otaku martial artist with zero wilderness survival experience into a wilderness survival expert who would never give up in any desperate situation!
