This world has one ironclad rule: when the evil within you is amplified to its limit by spirit-eroding mist, you turn into a crystal, beautiful, pure, and worth a fortune.
People call it a “Sin Spirit Core.”
It lets people break through bottlenecks, gain power, and extend their lives. And so the hunt began. Family, friends, neighbors... anyone might become someone else’s stepping stone to power.
My name is Shen Yuan. I was once the ace of the Purification Corps. Three years ago, in the mist, I crystallized my own partner with my own hands and took her Spirit Core. I thought it was the only choice.
Three years later, the same mist descended once more.
This time, I don’t want to run away. I want to know: when the whole world is pushing you to eat people, can you still hold on to what it means to be human?
This is not a story about heroes. It is a story about choices.
When good and evil can be measured, when human nature is magnified, and everyone is calculating whether something is “worth it,” what will you choose?
