The Medical Cage

In a world ruled by the cultivation world, hospitals are lairs where mortals' spiritual roots are plundered, and patients with fevers become expendable sources of life force.

Lin Yan, an ordinary young man sent to the hospital with a low-grade fever, unexpectedly awakens an ancient spiritual root dormant within him and escapes a deadly trap. From fugitive in the ruins to heir to a Spiritual Sage's legacy, he gradually uncovers the dark truth behind the hospital: under the guise of running a hospital, the Lin family treats billions of mortals as expendable resources for cultivation.

After inheriting the legacy of the ancient Spiritual Sage Cang Yun and mastering the Cang Yun Body-Refinement Art, Lin Yan vows to break this predatory system. From a coordinated rescue operation across five divisions to the decisive battle atop Cloud Summit Mountain, he rises from mortal to spirit master and leads eighty-eight awakened people in challenging the rotten order of the cultivation world.

"Better to take a chance than let yourself be boiled like a frog in warm water!"

This is a rousing legend of a mortal defying fate, and an epic of resistance in the name of freedom and dignity.
