Subjugate All Realms Starting from the Apocalyptic Empress

Zang Tian, a young man from the modern era, transmigrates into a grim world overrun by demons and monsters. Fiends occupy the halls of power, calling themselves immortals and Buddhas, yet they treat humans as two-legged livestock to pen up and slaughter. On the brink of death, he awakens the Mortician System. By interring corpses, he inherits their cultivation and divine arts; the stronger the deceased, the greater the rewards. For three years, he slays monsters and collects corpses with a Tang horizontal saber, barely securing a foothold. One night, a white-robed woman named Pei Lingyun hires him for a hefty sum to travel to Yan City, the demon capital, to lay the body of peerless Empress to rest. The system triggers an SSS-rank quest: the Empress’s Remains. Unknown to Zang Tian, his employer is none other than the reincarnated remnant soul of the Empress, and the corpse he is tasked to bury is, at its root, her own past self. He cuts down every demon in his path: he beheads the Undying Mountain Lord at Heavenly Demon Ridge. Storming the demon capital, he collapses the city with one punch, slays three demon lords in the rain. The first blood-eye blooms on his blade, and a celestial eye emerges between his brows.
