Asking the Way

At Wushi Ferry that day, the dead came back from the river. They did not kill, nor return home, but walked along a nonexistent road toward the same young girl, Jiang Yi. Everyone was watching her. Only Zhang Pingchu saw that the road beneath the dead had long been severed. Because of that single glance, he was taken to Changcen Mountain, entered Taiwei, and began true cultivation. From that day on, he gradually discovered that what was severed in this world was far more than just one road. Ancient formations were reviving, the dead were returning, and things buried for centuries were resurfacing. It seemed someone had been doing one thing all along: reconnecting what should have been severed forever. — Description from novelcodex.org
