The Heavenly Dao crumbles, and spiritual energy mutates! Cultivation is a race against madness, and the strong will eventually become corrupted and lose themselves. Li Yuan, once at the pinnacle of power, resolutely crippled his own cultivation to protect his humanity. Taking the name Lin Jin, he sought an ordinary life in a mountain village. His only treasure is A Yao, a pure spiritual body he found and adopted as his daughter. But when his old enemies catch the scent of his wounds, his peaceful life shatters in an instant. To protect this hard-won glimmer of hope, Lin Jin is forced to take up the forbidden power born of the “Heavenly Dao's wounds” once more. He can strip the poison of corruption from anything, but the price is to tear apart his own soul! This is a path of protection through a crumbling world, wielding wounds as a blade and swearing to live an ordinary life.
