The Last Bloodline

(No harem + no female lead + no System + no levels + mind-bending mystery + history and culture)

Beneath the city, the earth’s veins conceal the uncanny. Ordinary people need no arduous training. A single brush with Sin Qi can grant them power that defies heaven, turning them into “Rulebreakers.” The “Essence Guardians,” who uphold the path of refining essence into qi and tempering the mind and body, regard such unearned power as stolen, corrupt heresy and vow to purge it. Sin Qi is violent and gnaws at the heart. As Rulebreakers lose control and trigger one secret uprising after another, the city becomes a battlefield of hidden conflict. Is Sin Qi a gift or a curse? What conspiracy lies behind the seals in the earth’s fissures? This struggle between rival lineages, spanning several hundred years, must ultimately be unraveled by an “ordinary person,” who will reveal the truth layer by layer amid the fog and flashing blades.
