My Martial Arts Bead

In a desolate world overrun by warring sects, plague, and ruthless gangs, Wei He is just a starving transmigrator. When his family mysteriously vanishes, leaving him and his timid sister vulnerable to predators like the infamous Chen Biao, his only hope awakens: a hidden 'Realm Breaking Bead'. This ancient artifact promises instant mastery of martial arts – but only if fueled by an insatiable hunger for 'essence qi' extracted from exotic, expensive foods. In a world where every meal is a struggle, Wei He must gorge himself to power. Can he devour enough to stand against the chaos, or will his relentless quest for strength consume him first?
