Crossing the Tribulation of Immortality

【Two Male Leads: 1v1: Both Pure:】 Countless cultivators shattered the stars in pursuit of immortality, never realizing they had long since become pawns on fate's chessboard. When the Demon Venerable Jun Linyi died in his previous life, his soul scattered and his cultivation vanished. Only then did he discover that the campaigns of his entire life had been an illusion woven by someone else. His fortune had been stolen, his blood had paved another's path to immortality, and the one he loved had become someone else's stepping stone to ascension! Reborn with a new lease on life, Jun Linyi returned to the beginning of his cultivation journey. Beneath his still-youthful face lay the murderous resolve of someone who had risen from the ashes. Fate's cruel mockery came one blow after another: his master, Jiuyuan Sucheng, derided by all three realms as a good-for-nothing, became the only person to whom he was bound in this life. His master's beauty was peerless, yet he usually wore a mask and rarely showed his true face. Jiuyuan Sucheng was protective of his reputation, yet planted a strange field of blood-red flowers behind Jun Linyi. He tossed aside a dead branch, and it transformed into a divine bird soaring through the sky. With a flick of his finger, he traced a spell that silently crushed the Nascent Souls of the cultivators who dared attack. When Jiuyuan Sucheng tied a bloodstained jade talisman to Jun Linyi's collar and gently stroked the boy's hair, Jun Linyi caught a sweet scent beneath the stench of blood. “To prove your immortality, first break your shackles.” He did not know that the hand wiping away his tears of blood had once toppled the old gods of the three realms, or that the eyes that saw through his hatred had witnessed this world’s birth and fall.
