The Filth Master

In a world where cultivation means imitating error and knowledge carries its own corruption, power means madness, and comprehending the Dao edges toward damnation.

Yang Zhen is a Purifier. His mission is not to cultivate, but to reverse-engineer: detoxifying twisted techniques and pulling cultivators who have fallen into madness back from the brink of cognitive collapse. Bearing a wisp of the Primordial Spirit Resonance, immune to all techniques yet utterly out of step with the world, he walks the line between light and darkness.

As an ancient, world-ending scripture nears awakening, the ruling Temple of All Knowledge seeks to unify every thought, and the fanatical League of Oneness proclaims that corruption is evolution... Yang Zhen is forced to confront the ultimate choice: purify everything into nothingness, or embrace chaos and descend into madness?

Perhaps a third path exists: with his profound understanding of “error,” he can forge a sliver of possibility for truth anew upon the cognitive ruins, riddled with cracks.
