Others were reborn and turned their lives around. He was crushed by life. Others gained a System. He was possessed by a heart demon.
When a catastrophe swept across the globe, countless people were corrupted by demonic energy and turned into monsters that knew nothing but slaughter. But in his desperate hour, Dai Jingxing struck a deal with the heart demon that had sprouted within him:
“You can have my body, but you must not hurt my family.”
From then on, a man and a demon shared one body. His true self plotted the course, while the heart demon carved a path with its blade.
As the truth behind the gods-and-demons chessboard slowly came to light, he discovered that the mastermind behind the disaster was the ancient Demon Ancestor Luohu, who had lain dormant for countless ages. And the lofty immortals filling the heavens had never been humanity’s allies.
“I will not kneel to immortals or follow the demonic path. I’ll take a third way.”
This is the story of an ordinary man fighting for humanity’s survival in the narrow space between gods and demons.
