This is a brutal cultivation world called the Nine Realms. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is gradually drying up, high-ranking cultivators monopolize resources, and low-level cultivators are treated like blades of grass. Cultivation is no longer synonymous with carefree immortality; it has become a fight to the death for resources. Undercurrents swirl between sects, the demonic path runs rampant, and demonic beasts wreak havoc.
In his previous life, Lin Feng was a top special-operations tactical analyst with a cool head and meticulous logic. After transmigrating, he becomes a lowly outer-sect menial disciple of the Qingyun Sect, with mediocre aptitude. He has neither an extraordinary spiritual root nor an old master at his side. His sole advantage is strategic thinking beyond the understanding of his era and an insight into human nature.
The Qingyun Sect, where Lin Feng finds himself, appears to be an orthodox sect, but its factions are deeply divided, and a shocking conspiracy lurks within. To survive, Lin Feng must navigate the cracks and use his wits to lay his plans. Starting as a lowly menial disciple, he climbs step by step, uncovers the secrets behind the sect, and carves out a path of cunning all his own in this dog-eat-dog world.
