The Martial Suppressor’s Corpse Searcher: A Prison Guard Stumbles Upon a Thousand-Year Conspiracy from the Start

Jiang Zheng is a low-ranking jailer in the deepest level of the Great Qian Zhenwu Bureau’s prison. He has a deadly talent: touching corpses lets him see ghosts!

Touch the dead, and he can glimpse their memories from before they died. Touch the injured, and he can see the secrets in their hearts. The price? His soul sea tears apart, leaving him in unbearable agony.

Then one night, the prison caught fire, a thousand-year-old demon core was stolen, and the blame fell on him. A condemned prisoner died clutching a blood jade... Forced to touch a charred corpse, Jiang Zheng glimpsed the sinister mole of an inspector’s deputy and heard the murmured words, “the lord above.”

His escape grows stranger still: a thousand-year-old demon soul burrows into his body and forces him to cooperate, while the blood jade in his arms turns out to be the “spirit-suppressing key” to a demon lair! A shadow watches impassively from the top floor; black-robed figures bearing the character for “Nightmare” perform a blood sacrifice with a demon core at a mass grave... A stolen demon core has exposed a century-spanning blood feud and a shocking conspiracy!

Bearing the forbidden art of “Soul Tracing,” cursed by a demon soul, and holding the key to a demon lair, Jiang Zheng discovers he was never a nobody. He is the living bait that those “big shots” have spent a century setting out to catch someone of the “Return to Truth” realm!

If I’m bait, then I’ll swallow the hook and tear the heavens apart!

A corpse-touching talent has uncovered a massive conspiracy. As for this Zhenwu Bureau, I’m turning against it for sure!
