Lin Qiu was an ordinary young man until he stumbled upon an ancient bronze mirror on a rainy night, setting him on an irreversible path to immortality.
The mirror held countless worlds, yet what it revealed was a bloodcurdling truth:
The so-called cultivation world was no more than a cage where the "upper realm" kept its livestock.
The so-called ascension meant becoming food for the "Heavenly Dao."
And every generation of mirror masters had been raised as "keys," destined to become sacrifices that would complete the Great Void...
When he discovered that his mother was a gatekeeper, his father had died for the Dao, and even Su Jiuli, the dragon woman at his side, was a pawn planted by the first mirror master...
**Lin Qiu laughed.**
"If the Heavenly Dao treats all worlds as fields and cultivators as grain..."
"Then I'll burn those fields and shatter these shackles!"
Highlights:
✔ **Hardcore Cultivation**: An original Ninefold Starry Sky Cycle system, with revolutionary breakthroughs at every stage.
✔ **High-Stakes Mind Games**: Mirror masters hunt one another across star domains, with clues stretching across three thousand cycles of reincarnation.
✔ **A Nonconventional Female Lead**: Su Jiuli transforms from a dragon who protects the Dao to a true dragon who slays gods.
✔ **A Mind-Blowing World**: The Bronze Star Domain, the Heavenly Dao's prison, and the war among mirror spirits are unveiled layer by layer.
