Xia Li transmigrated and obtained a rollback System. Whenever he dies, he can turn back time and be reborn, starting everything over.
Although he can roll back time a full ten thousand times, if he lives as an ordinary mortal, he will still vanish forever when those ten thousand chances are used up.
So Xia Li begins a desperate search for a way to live forever.
Fortunately, in his second life, after becoming the strongest person in the world, Xia Li catches a glimpse of the path to immortality. But he is then killed by an immortal, losing his chance at an immortal's fate.
In his third life, to avoid the tragedy of his previous life, Xia Li takes the path of working behind the scenes, vigorously nurturing powerhouses stronger than himself. In the end, he still fails.
In his fourth life, Xia Li chooses to live in seclusion and stay out of the world's affairs, but still fails.
In his fifth life, Xia Li becomes a tyrant, acting against all reason until the whole world turns against him. He brings about his own downfall, yet successfully obtains an immortal's fate.
But this is only the first step on the path to immortality.
In this cold and merciless world of cultivation, where the strong prey on the weak, the slightest misstep can mean death, the destruction of one's cultivation, and the annihilation of one's soul!
Fortunately, after each rollback, Xia Li can choose to inherit the power he gained in his previous life.
And so, through the accumulation of one lifetime after another...
In his 189th life, Xia Li achieves Foundation Establishment and qualifies to become a piece on the board in the great chess game.
In his 564th life, Xia Li achieves the Golden Core realm, going from a piece at the mercy of others to a player moving the pieces.
In his 2,318th life, Xia Li achieves the Nascent Soul realm, finally rising from player to overseer.
In his 9,876th life, a body of a tribulation-transcending immortal is born in an instant, striking terror into the demons and bringing all immortals to their knees!
