In 2145, spiritual veins have run dry, and cultivation has become a game of computing power. The Tianqiong Group monopolizes virtual spiritual roots, leaving low-level cultivators with no hope of rising above their station.
Lin Ye, an electronic flying-sword repairman, unexpectedly awakens a Chaotic Dao Body capable of cracking every cultivation protocol. Taking on the hacker identity “Night Shadow,” he uses code to fight corporate tyranny.
But his Dao Body is unconsciously devouring spiritual energy, leading him step by step down the same path of distortion as Tianqiong.
A boy who sells a kidney to pursue the Dao, an old cultivator who upholds the ways of ancient cultivation, a corporate engineer troubled by his conscience, and an awakened one from the previous generation who has long since given in are all swept into the storm.
Will Lin Ye defy fate and change his destiny, or fall into the abyss?
With code as his Dao and spiritual energy as his blade, this time he will topple the entire Tianqiong!
