All Filth Returns to the Sect: From Junk Collector to Grandmaster

In the depths of the cyberpunk city of New Wasteland lies a dump called “Stack.” Ling Xiao is a scavenger there, picking through trash every day so the old woman he took in can keep breathing for one more day. Then one day, he touches a black lump. From that moment on, everything the world throws away starts talking inside his head. He can hear the fury of steel, touch the memories in data, and see a person’s loves and hates in a puddle of oil. They call this power “All Filth Returns to the Source.” A man in white comes down from the upper city of Skyvault. His name is Pei Yu, and he says Ling Xiao is contamination that must be purified. There’s a taciturn female mechanic in the dump named Su Tan. She looks at him as if he were a machine she’s never seen before. Then there’s Jiang Li, a woman from the city who smiles and tells him his talent could fetch a good price. One wants him dead, one wants to take him apart, and one wants to sell him. Ling Xiao doesn’t want to die, and he wants even less for the old woman to die. So he has no choice but to fight for a way to survive amid all this trash. The road from scavenger to master.
