Necromancer Myth

Necromancer Myth is a full-length game-system novel by the web author Yu Min, serialized on Qidian Chinese Network from June 2019 and completed in July 2021, running to about 3.27 million characters and 1,619 chapters. At the start, the soul of an ordinary young man, Liu Zhi, transmigrates into a gamified multiverse plane and takes over the body of Sandro Ide, a necromancer apprentice in the middle of his graduation assessment. He wakes on a merchant ship under pirate attack, in the identity of an impoverished noble traveling east to trade. In the cabin Liu Zhi finds the original owner's most treasured possession—a Maya-style golden pendant of the sun god. The pendant can communicate with the soul of the deceased Inca emperor Atahualpa and offers three starting paths: summon the heroic spirit of an Inca warrior, obtain the training method of a solar hero, or merge with the heroic spirit to gain its powers directly. Beyond that, the pendant is tied to deeper threads such as the "earthly divine kingdom," "pyramids" and "ruins." From this starting point, Liu Zhi completes the assessment task left by the original owner while managing his own underworld palace (graveyard), building a netherworld ecosystem, collecting creatures and expanding his undead forces; upheavals in the plane force him to wander through multiple planes, and he joins the "Fourth Calamity Homecoming Troupe" formed by transmigrators, moving step by step toward the position of a god who governs life and death amid mutual aid and strife. The book builds its world in a "game rules plus historical fantasy" manner, combining the classic necromancer template with plane management and organizational maneuvering.
