Seek your own path, keep searching, and you'll find the way of humanity. Water and mountains may be crossed, but the path remains. May Heaven never grow old, and may my hometown forever be well. I see only green mountains, yet everywhere they are pierced by rain and wind. The road to my hometown seems endless. The Way of the Taoist, the Way of the Gods—I seek the way of humanity myself. Demons and monsters all claim to be good, but the winds howl and thunder roars, heaven and earth waile and ghosts cry. Why has the once beautiful land become a sea of ​​blood? The road to my hometown seems like a road of no return. I ask humanity, where can I find the Way? (Although this has been used before, I'll still use it to feel appropriate.)

On an seemingly ordinary day, a driverless bus carrying Kong Linzhang, Wei Zhiyuan, and a group of cursed individuals arrives at the Black Haunted House. Every so often, a blood-red portal within the house forcibly pulls the group into a terrifying world to carry out horrific events. Kong Linzhang and Wei Zhiyuan, as witnesses, are filled with intense regret and resentment, and unexpectedly gain the ability to travel through time. During their travels, they foresee crucial clues using information asymmetry, but their lack of understanding of the rules of time travel hinders their actions. Meanwhile, a mysterious villainous organization, determined to prevent the truth from being revealed, constantly sabotages the protagonists' search for clues. The protagonists must not only contend with the harsh environment and unknown threats beyond the Haunted House and the blood-red portal, but also break the curse within a limited time. In the process, they are forced to choose sides with some of the cursed individuals due to ideological differences, creating a conflict between factions. The protagonists are also misled by the villains, leading to misunderstandings and misguided actions. Even after successfully breaking the curse, they discover that the "butterfly effect" has caused irreversible consequences, and the victory comes at a heavy price.

The story takes place in the fictional Chinese kingdom of Caiyun. According to legend, a young man, aided by the power of the Eight Immortals, founded Caiyun. Consequently, Caiyun's territory was divided into eight provinces: Hongzhou, Huangzhou, Bizhou, Lanzhou, Zizhou, Heizhou, Baizhou, and Chazhou. Approximately 600 years ago, the king of the time ordered the nobles of each province to adopt one of these eight colors as their surnames (for example, the Marquis of Lanzhou became Lan, the Marquis of Hongzhou became Hong, and so on). Commoners were prohibited from sharing surnames with these eight marquises. Consequently, those bearing these eight colors were considered the most aristocratic of the nobles. Furthermore, because the Marquis of Zizhou, where the capital was located, also served as king, the Zi family became the royal family's surname. Despite being born into the prestigious Hong family, Hong Xiuli lived in poverty. She had to work extensively to support her family. Having experienced the turmoil of the throne struggle as a child, she deeply understood the suffering of the people. From a young age, she diligently studied, hoping to pass the imperial examination, become an official, assist the king, and build a prosperous and peaceful nation. However, as a woman, she cannot take the imperial examination. One day, Xiu Li accepts a high-paying commission from Grand Tutor Xiao and enters the harem as a noble concubine to teach and assist the incompetent emperor. This opportunity leads Xiu Li to a career as an official, and she encounters a variety of people.

Xiao Han never expected that she, an ordinary working girl who hadn't even graduated from junior high school, would one day travel through time.

She was transported to another world, but she had neither a spatial system nor any usable cheat codes, and she received absolutely no transmigration benefits or bonuses.

If she doesn't have it, she doesn't have it. But everyone else is a soul transmigrator who can integrate into the local society as soon as they arrive. She, on the other hand, is a body transmigrator who can't speak the language or read the script. How is she supposed to live?

Having barely survived, they discovered that they actually possessed spiritual roots and could cultivate.

In order to be free from the torment of mortal illnesses, to enjoy the delicacies that only cultivators can taste, and to live a normal life without getting married, she embarked on the path of cultivation.

However, as an older, less talented, and unprotected cultivator without the support of a family or sect, she was destined to toil and struggle to make a living and cultivate with great difficulty.
