On the night the Netherworld Sect was wiped out, the young Shen Ye narrowly survived. The blood, the ruins, the shadows: it had all been part of the game he set in motion.
He showed no mercy and left no room for escape. With the aid of the ancient demonic artifact, the Hundred Ghosts' Night Parade Scroll, he could absorb ghosts, control life and death, and devour cultivation.
In his eyes, the weak were fit only to be pawns, while even the strong could not escape his schemes. Hidden in the shadows, he plotted within sects, consolidated forces, and manipulated hearts until the entire Cangqiong Continent became his chessboard.
This is a story of cunning and power plays, revenge and growth. Every scheme brings blood and shadows, and every victory leaves his enemies gasping for breath.
Beneath the sky, a night-walker is rising. Dare you follow him into this blood-soaked game of chess?
