When a bronze compass glows faintly at an archaeological site, Luo Chen glimpses a truth that shatters everything he knows amid the turbulence of space and time: the so-called ascension to the Immortal Realm is nothing but a reincarnation farm meticulously designed by a higher civilization. Beneath the vast starry sky of the world known as the "Xuanhuang Realm," a young man grips the incomplete Nine Revolutions Reincarnation Art and stirs up chaos across the Three Realms with his Chaos Spirit Root.
From the life-and-death platform for outer-sect disciples in the Eastern Wastelands to the shattered Star Throne on the battlefield of the myriad heavens; from the sword-wielding beauty awakening in an icebound ancient kingdom to the rifts in the firmament torn open by extraterrestrial demons. When his nemesis Xiao Yan's fiery clouds burn away the thirty-third heaven, and Su Muqing's sword tip pries open the bronze mask of the Space-Time Administration, only then does Luo Chen understand: the true pinnacle of cultivation is rewriting the predetermined course of fate in the reincarnation wells of the Nine Forbidden Grounds.
Here, sword cultivators freeze the starry river with a snap of their fingers, masters of formations use the stars as pieces in their schemes, and a modern soul questions the Great Dao of immortality in a stunning epiphany. When the fragments of the Chaos Bell reassemble with a roar that pierces time and space, this battle to defy fate, spanning the mortal world and the celestial firmament, will bear witness to the dazzling light of a mortal slaying a god in the shattered river of causality.
