Life-for-Years Deduction: Rising to the Top, Starting as a Strongman

Lin Dong is gravely ill and has only one year left to live.

In the Great Li Dynasty, overrun by monsters and demons, he works as a low-ranking enforcer in the Demon Suppression Bureau, never knowing if he'll survive the day.

Fortunately, he awakens the ability to use his lifespan to deduce cultivation techniques.

And so, the Demon Suppression Bureau's prison, filled with heinous criminals beyond counting, gains a living King of Hell: Lin Dong.

Watching his lifespan skyrocket, Lin Dong begins with basic martial arts and deduces one technique after another.

You killed a man-eating demon and seized fifty years of its lifespan. You deduced a martial art: Diamond Divine Leg, mastered.

You killed a demon dragon and seized three hundred years of its lifespan. You deduced a cultivation method: Demon Suppression Scripture, mastered.

You raise your blade and challenge the heavens: What is an immortal?
