When pills become hard currency across the universe, cultivation civilization and cyber technology collide violently at the edge of a black hole. Mo Yang - a half-human, half-mechanical interstellar bounty hunter, dragging his broken body implanted with the memory of the ancient Alchemy Sage, was forced to embark on an expedition to seize the Alchemy that subverted time and space in order to save his home star that was about to be annihilated.
His left arm is a quantum elixir furnace that can decompose all things. His spine contains a transition core with a 30-day cooling cycle. The mechanical heart beating in his chest is gradually being eroded by the cold program of the AI elixir "Chi Xiao". In order to obtain the original elixir that can reverse the increase in planetary entropy, Mo Yang traveled to the ancient world of cultivation, only to find that this place had already been colonized by the future: the Eclipse Star Merchant refined the elixir into financial weapons, the Danta monks used plasma beams to replace the Samadhi True Fire, and even the Heavenly Tribulation became a tradable futures contract.
Hunted by the Space-Time Management Bureau, Mo Yang had to control two taboo powers at the same time: using the mecha prosthetic limb to perform the Soul Devouring Technique to devour the sword spirit, and using the nerve bundle as a guide to recast the Tribulation Thunder Cloud. When he accidentally awakens the girl spirit of the natal alchemy furnace, and when the madman Qing Mingzi reveals the truth about the mechanical heart, a conspiracy spanning three thousand planes emerges - the so-called alchemy is just a harvesting program written by a higher civilization, and all alchemists are living nutrients for cultivating the "Eternal Life Pill".
At this moment, Mo Yang's mechanization index has reached 91%, and the remaining human right eye has begun to crystallize. He must make a decision before he completely becomes an AI: detonate the black market of elixirs and return the freedom of cultivation, or turn into a living elixir to permanently suppress the space-time rift? Or will it merge with Chixiao and become a new species that transcends the boundaries of carbon and silicon?
