In the final years of the Dayin Dynasty, imperial authority collapses and spiritual energy vanishes.
Shen Yan, a top scholar from a poor family, is sentenced to have his entire family executed after exposing fraud in the imperial examinations. On the execution platform, he uses a jade pendant left by his mother to awaken the ancient Heavenly Secrets Stele.
The Heavenly Secrets Stele can glimpse the secrets of Heaven and alter one's fate, but each divination demands a memory in return.
To avenge his family's slaughter, Shen Yan embarks on a path that defies Heaven, using his memories as fuel. He divines the Northern Prince's life and death, forgetting his mother's face; he plots a deadly trap at Black Crow Shrine, erasing the laughter of his childhood.
When the truth of nine cycles of reincarnation comes to light, he discovers to his horror that he is the expendable pawn destined to be sacrificed in Heaven's game.
Fragments of memories from his first eight lives are scattered across time and space, and in every one, he died a violent death.
In this life, he will have more than revenge. He will defy Heaven!
Watch as a condemned man wields the Heavenly Secrets Stele, reshapes the world in this age of spiritual decline, and fights his way onto a path from reincarnation to godhood!
