6 itemsAbout the Game
More than two hundred years after a great war, the world has entered an era of peace and development. Television, the internet, music, games, and various other forms of entertainment and technological inventions are rapidly changing people's lives and values. The pursuit of cultivation and immortality, once sought by everyone, has been replaced by a more relaxed, entertainment-first mindset. Consequently, once prominent cultivation sects have declined and gradually faded into the unprecedented tide of this new era. You, as the contemporary successor of the declining "Hehuan Sect," feel compelled to uphold the sect's last vestiges of glory after your master's passing. During your first summer break from university, you return to Xiahe Town, where you grew up, home to your sect and your companions. Making the right choices and responding to the feelings of the young women is the primary condition for inheriting the sect.
