Xu Yi found himself in a parallel world where one hundred and forty years ago, Zombies descended globally through spatial rifts, bringing humanity to the brink of collapse. Unlike traditional zombies, these hopping monsters, starting from Green-faced Fanged Hairy Zombies, proved nearly impervious to modern weapons, with advanced forms like Flying Zombies and Unmelting Bone Zombies capable of mass destruction. In response, some humans awakened Talent Sequences, gaining extraordinary powers to fight back, and the importance of this ability became paramount. Xu Yi, having recently transmigrated, confirmed his new reality through news reports of B-rank and S-rank Zombie incidents. On Sequence Awakening Day at Pingcheng Second High School, he awakened three Talents to choose from, including a highly coveted Fire Attribute Sequence, one of the few capable of greatly restraining Zombies. Defying expectations, he rejected the Fire Attribute Sequence and chose an unknown Sequence called 【Taoist】, which had never appeared before, infuriating the principal who saw it as a reckless gamble. Xu Yi remained confident, believing the Taoist Sequence was perfectly suited for a world plagued by Zombies.After fusing with the Sequence, Xu Yi’s personal panel revealed his Sequence path as Taoist to Heavenly Master to Dragon Tiger Heavenly Master to Ancient Qi Practitioner, with a passive skill named All Evils Avoided that dealt extra high damage to Evil Spirits, and an active skill called Palm Thunder Curse, a powerful lightning spell. The advancement condition to Tier 2 required slaying ten Purple Zombies. Shortly after, Director Zhao from the Awakening Office arrived to conduct a Sequence Strength Test on the school playground, using two restrained Purple Zombies as targets. One by one, students demonstrated their skills against the resilient Zombies, which possessed terrifying self-healing abilities. Most students struggled to even break the Zombie’s skin, receiving low ratings of C or D, causing many to lose confidence. The principal grew worried about the psychological impact until Zhu Xiaotong, the school’s sole Fire Attribute Sequence wielder, used her Fire Crow skill to inflict noticeable burns, earning an A-rating and direct admission to Dragon Tiger Academy.When Xu Yi’s turn came, he calmly stepped forward and chanted an incantation. Summoning a bolt of lightning from clear sky, he unleashed a dazzling thunderbolt from his palm that struck the Purple Zombie’s chest with devastating force. The lightning created a large, charred wound, carbonized the flesh, and suppressed the Zombie’s regeneration, causing it to shriek in agony. The power far surpassed the Fire Attribute Sequence, stunning everyone present, including Director Zhao. Recognizing the lightning contained an exceptional energy that obliterated Malevolent Energy, Zhao Quhong rated Xu Yi’s Sequence strength as S-Class, the highest level, and formally invited him to join Dragon Tiger Academy without an exam, with top-level training resources. Xu Yi accepted without hesitation. Afterward, with Zhao’s permission, Xu Yi unleashed another Palm Thunder Curse, killing the Purple Zombie outright, marking the first time Zhao had seen a newly awakened student slay one during a test. Xu Yi’s panel then updated, showing he had awakened a new Talisman Art, the Six Ding Six Jia Talisman, which summoned a Divine General to slay evil and demons, further verifying his unique potential as a Taoist Sequence User destined to become a cornerstone of human defense against the Zombie threat.
