The woodcutter boy Lin Mo witnesses a battle between immortals and demons, and the Old Ancestor Tian Xie plants a demonic seed within him, completely overturning his ordinary fate. Li Tianguang of the Zixiao Sect saves him and brings him back to the sect, only for the Heart-Questioning Mirror to reveal astonishing demonic markings: he can devour spiritual veins, control divine weapons, and even awaken the ancient guardian beast that has slumbered for a thousand years!
“You think the righteous immortal sects are anything but a board of pieces where people are devoured?”
When the Immortal Realm unleashes a soul-destroying tribulation, and his mentor reveals the dagger meant to carve out his heart, Lin Mo tears open his bloodstained robes and lets the demonic markings spread across the Executioner's Terrace. He devours the tribulation, slays the divine beast, and refines the Scroll of Rebirth, discovering that the so-called Heavenly Dao is nothing but a lie perpetuated for ten thousand years.
“If the immortals seek to destroy me, then I shall prove my Dao through slaughter!”
On the day the blood moon fills the sky, the boy stands atop the Immortal Emperor's bones, while a million demonic soldiers behind him hammer at Heaven's gates. The prodigies who once looked down on him and the ancient monsters who have schemed for millennia will finally understand: the most terrifying thing has never been one who falls to demonic ways, but a god-slayer who has crawled back from hell!
