[Dark cultivation, defying fate, decisive and ruthless]
Five hundred years ago, Ling was the supreme master of the Soul Dao. He led the demonic path in an assault on the Celestial Realm, only to be surrounded and slaughtered by thirty-six immortal sects and a hundred thousand celestial soldiers. Betrayed by his own demonic followers, his soul sea shattered, and everyone turned against him.
He crushed his natal supreme treasure, the Nine-Turn Reincarnation Soul Pearl, and reversed time by five hundred years, at the cost of his soul being utterly destroyed!
He opened his eyes and found himself back in his fifteen-year-old body.
A useless body with five spirit roots, an abandoned son in the servant quarters, publicly humiliated by his older brother and bullied by his clan. In this life, he is still the lowest-ranking “good-for-nothing” in the Ling clan.
But no one knows that within this frail body lies a demonic-path supreme who crawled back from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
[Decisive and ruthless, never soft-hearted]
Bullies? He kills them in an instant and refines them into soul slaves.
Traitors? He lays his plans in advance and wipes out their entire families.
An unjust Heavenly Dao? Then he’ll defy heaven and shatter the Celestial Palace!
[Dark cultivation, entering the Dao through the soul]
He uses Spirit-Washing Grass to change his aptitude, the Shadow Art to lay his foundation, seizes inheritances in forbidden lands, and snatches immortal mansions in secret realms... From a servant in Remnant Cloud Valley to the Northern Wastes’ Demon Venerable, from a minor Foundation Establishment cultivator to a Nine-Turn Supreme, he carves his way forward over corpses and sails across seas of blood.
[Ultimate twist, the battle against heaven]
When he finally stands atop the Nine Heavens, he discovers that his rebirth was part of a game orchestrated by the Celestial Realm all along.
The Reincarnation Soul Pearl was bait cast by the will of heaven. This so-called defiance of fate was nothing more than raising a poisonous creature to fatten oneself.
“If we’re all just chess pieces, then I’ll overturn the board!”
