The Heaven-Defying Overlord of National Destiny

Chu Lin, an ordinary 23-year-old office worker, unexpectedly transmigrates to a fantasy world and becomes a contestant in the Dragon Nation's "National Fortune Trial," entering a mysterious forbidden zone to face its challenges. From the start, he awakens the "Origin Devouring" ability, which lets him create an army of shadow soldiers. But fearing Dragon Nation's rise, powers from various countries join forces to obstruct Chu Lin and the others. In the harsh environment of the forbidden zone, Chu Lin is initially too weak, and he and his teammates have to build trust and learn to work together.

They enter the SSS-rank forbidden zone, the "Abyssal Corridor." Contestants from other countries awaken supernatural abilities, while Chu Lin seems ordinary. The first wave of monsters leaves him on the brink of death. At the critical moment, he activates "Origin Devouring," creates shadow assassins who kill the monsters instantly, and saves Zhang Qiling. Bai Yueku and Sister Bao then join them. As they continue to clear challenges, Eagle Country, Sakura Country, and others unite to hunt them down, sending top-tier ability users like the "Thunder Lord." Chu Lin cleverly counters them with his shadow army, kills his opponents, and devours their abilities to grow stronger, but this only provokes even more ruthless attacks from other factions.

During the forbidden zone's final trial, a god-tier boss appears, leaving contestants from other countries in despair. Chu Lin faces a race against time and a siege by factions on all sides
