[The Bloodrust Era: The Five Cities' God-Slaying Chronicles]

"You want my blood? I'll take the city lord's life instead!"
Shen Jin scraped by in Rustiron Village for nineteen years, until a blood-tax collector from the bloodthirsty clan drove a needle into his mother's neck.
On the brink of death, the dormant genes within him erupted. The Blood Corrosion Path ability his father left behind awakened, and his fangs first emerged as he twisted the tax collector's head off with his bare hands.
Five blood nests, six antidotes, and a god-slaying conspiracy spanning a thousand years.
From blood collector in Withered Vine Town to chief of the blood bank in Azure Underworld City, Shen Jin discovers that the blood wine Red Silk Intoxication is mixed with labels from his father's blood-puppet workshop.
The mechanical prosthetic city lord of White Frost City, the memory vintner of Vermilion Sand City, the shadow puppeteer of Dark Abyss City... Every city conceals a fragment of the antidote, and the final dose is flowing through his own veins!
"I'm not a monster. I'm the end of monsters."
When Shen Jin's Eternal Night Blood River engulfs the sun altar in Crimson Sky City, the flames of the Candle Dragon Order burn through his heart.
On the brink of death, he smiles and crushes the antidote for the five cities. It turns out the true key to reversing the genes was planted on the day he awakened.
