The Five Tripod Mystery

Li Shikun, a cultivator from Kunyu Mountain with foundation-building cultivation and ancient artifacts, descends into the mundane world in 1933. He encounters a shaman descendant pursued by Japanese agents, saves him, and becomes entangled in the mystery of the Five Tripods that determine national destiny. Together with Yin Jizu, a shaman descendant, and Chen Gongshu, a spy leader, they form an alliance against various forces. They explore tombs, decipher codes, and uncover a historical deception: the tripods were merely a political ritual staged for Emperor Kangxi, who later eliminated the participants. The true national destiny lies in the will of the people, not magical artifacts. — Description from novelcodex.org
