Spiritual qi revival sweeps the world. Ferocious beasts roam everywhere. In these brutal times, the strong prey on the weak.
In his previous life, Gu Lingtao devoted ten years of effort to building the safest human refuge in the apocalypse. He was kindhearted and selfless, protecting everyone and tolerating their endless demands. In return, his beloved and his trusted followers betrayed him together.
His cultivation was crippled and his life’s work destroyed. The very people he had protected took everything from him and looked on coldly as they scorned him.
The world was cruel, and only the orphan girl Tantai Jingying stood up for him. She was caught in the retribution and died full of resentment.
Her Dao foundation had shattered when she was young, and she had suffered a lonely, wretched life. Yet she was the only person in the world who had ever truly cared for him.
Consumed by remorse and bitterness, Gu Lingtao burned himself out in a final act that took his enemies with him. Reborn on the eve of the spiritual qi revival, he awakens the Heavenly Evolution Spirit Realm and a top-tier devouring talent.
He casts off his foolish kindness and seals his heart in ice, stockpiling endless resources and devouring countless talents.
In this life, he has only two goals: keep Tantai Jingying safe and happy for every year to come, and heal the wounds she has carried all her life; then rise to the summit of the heavens, where no one can bully him.
