A modern botanical genius is killed in a car accident and transmigrates into a mass grave in another world, becoming Lin Wei, a seven-year-old orphan whom everyone in Frostleaf City can bully.
Starving and freezing, with wild dogs closing in, she is on the brink of death when eerie blue-green patterns on her left palm suddenly flare to life. Dead grass grows wildly, and brambles form a cage!
This is no blessing. It is a curse!
Her power to spur plants to grow brings with it bone-deep cold and the backlash of a will bent on desolation. Frostleaf City is no refuge, but an even more merciless jungle. The apothecary’s manager sees her as a thief, the gang leader wants her dead, and even the poison woman “Granny Mu,” who lives in a ruined temple with half her face hidden behind a ghostly mask, looks at her like she’s found a… perfect “poison seedling”!
“Learn poison from me, or rot at the end of an alley tonight. Choose.”
Poisonous seeds enter her body, and her flesh and bones dissolve!
When she wakes again, she is no longer human!
She has become a… poison-bone demon husk, with green jade for bones, dark underworld essence for blood, and a tribulation heart at its core!
Whatever her left hand touches, all poisons bow! Plants and trees become weapons!
“They called me a poison seedling…”
“Then I’ll let this poison… scorch the heavens and boil the seas!”
“I’ll wield my poison bones as a blade and bury every god and demon beneath the heavens!”
