All Things Are Contracts

Handwritten synopsis of this novel: They do not know their past glory. They do not know their past power. They’ve been destroyed time and time again. They have no free will. They think themselves powerful while fighting for their own interests. Those higher beings make sure of it. They are born with contracts yet they don’t know the meaning behind them. They’ve long forgotten what it means to be “Human”. Our protagonist a young man named Zhanyue just wanted to finish his PhD and live a leisurely life. Unfortunately, he found himself transported to a turbulent world where everyone had already been cultivating since they were young while those Evil beings had already been living for hundreds of years. Cases of old Monsters who wouldn’t die possessing weaklings souls were all too common. And to make matters worse the humans in this world were heading towards a world ending war with something called the “Nightmare” Race. Wait that’s not the worst of it!?
