Senior Sister of Medical Sect in the Interstellar

After a thousand years of arduous cultivation, Senior Sister Yun Wanwan of the Medical Sect finally ascended amid birdsong, floral fragrance, and auspicious spiritual light—only to open her eyes and find she had become a cannon-fodder side character abandoned in the terrifying forest of a desolate planet described in a melodramatic novel.

Yun Wanwan: This has to be an illusion!—If her ascension posture was wrong, she doesn’t mind doing it again.

The lost planet is overrun by mutated plants and ferocious beasts, yet it is also rich in spiritual energy and full of opportunities. For Yun Wanwan, a heaven-blessed Tianmu Spirit Root with an innate spiritual body, it is practically a cultivation paradise; she even suspects she can ascend again right here.

That is, until an interstellar adventure reality show lands on the desolate planet. In the heart of the so-called terrifying forest the crew stumbles upon a utopia, and the entire interstellar audience watches live as mutated plants sing and dance in the yard of a little wooden cabin:

—A rafflesia twirls with a mushroom, the mushroom dances one-two-one.

Meanwhile, famed powerhouses from both the Empire and the Alliance, notorious star-pirate chiefs, and other big shots all wait obediently outside a waist-high fence, earnestly taking numbered tags handed out by a devil-vine.

Is the world too surreal, has the broadcast satellite been hacked, or are those hallucinogenic mushrooms simply so potent their spores distort reality through the screen?

Big shots, what’s happened to you?!

—This is a despairing world; pollution is everywhere, human living space is brutally compressed, people must wear special masks the moment they step outside, and only within protective shells can they breathe freely. Plants and animals have mutated and can no longer coexist peacefully with humanity; the future of mankind seems devoid of light.

Then, one day, they witness a miracle happen—at the hands of Yun Wanwan.

Interstellar audience: Damn it! Why can’t we book a visit through the Starnet?! What? Neither the Alliance nor the Empire runs a legitimate route there? You’re kidding—there’s actually a corner of the galaxy not covered by the Starnet!

—This is the lost planet, Yun Wanwan’s personal utopia; she is its sovereign.
