Immortal and demon, each walking a different path, yet their life souls burn as one. Will they fight to the death, or live and perish together?
**At the peak of the Immortal Sect**, Shen Yanci bears the “Pure Dao Bones.” One sweep of his sword sends frost across fourteen provinces. A sword prodigy unseen in a thousand years at the Xuantian Sect, he is aloof and proud, as cold as ice high in the heavens.
**At the depths of the Demon Abyss**, Chu Canglang was born with the “Heaven-Burning Demon Seed.” He laughs as he drinks his enemies’ blood, a brilliant and arrogant young master of the Heaven-Burning Palace, fierce and wicked as the infernal flames of the Nine Hells.
The Heavenly Secrets Pavilion’s divination sends shock waves through the world: the stars governing their fates are eerily entwined in a pattern of **mutual destruction and mutual survival, locked in a fight to the death**! This prophecy concerns more than life and death. It strikes at the very root of their respective paths: to kill the other is to destroy oneself!
The immortal and demonic factions are outraged, and both issue orders for their execution: one of the two must die!
**Atop a sea of clouds, their first meeting is already a deadly impasse.**
The tip of Shen Yanci’s “Light-Reversal” sword presses against Chu Canglang’s throat, its killing intent icy. Yet Chu Canglang laughs recklessly. “Little Immortal Lord, do you know that killing me means gouging out your own Dao Bones?”
“Enough nonsense.” Shen Yanci moves to strike, his expression cold.
Before the words have even faded, **the pain of their life souls tearing apart** engulfs them both! The immortal bones and demon seed resonate violently, and their hearts feel as though they have been struck a devastating blow. The prophecy has come true in the cruelest way imaginable!
From then on, their relentless hunt becomes a shared curse they cannot escape.
When he slays demons, the other’s heart burns; when he massacres the Immortal Sect, the other’s Dao foundation trembles. Their absolute opposition forces them to travel together through this strange bond, struggling again and again on the brink of death.
Are they mortal enemies rejected by both the immortal and demonic realms? Sacrificial pawns toyed with by the Heavenly Dao? Or perhaps… the only ones in this desperate situation who can understand each other’s pain
