Fate Returns to the Abyss: I Hold the Mortal World at Bay with My Broken Body

Bai Bixian transmigrates into the body of a lowly night watchman with little time left to live.

He is burdened with a fate of certain death, deathly energy clinging to his body. He should have become a ghost in the underworld, but by chance he remains among the living, scraping by.

His loved ones suffer a terrible calamity, and every trace of warmth is shattered and withered away.

Then disaster strikes. Driven to the brink, his dual Buddha-and-demon personalities awaken with a roar.

With one thought, he shows compassion and delivers the wronged souls of the world. With another, he becomes an asura, cutting down the wicked with his own hand.

From a tiny pawn at the mercy of others, he transforms into the player who moves the pieces, stirring up the imperial court and the martial world.

With his broken body, he enters the game and tears away layer after layer of dark secrets: child trafficking, corruption in grain and military supplies, and treason in the court.

He defies his doomed fate, purges the world's corruption, and with his battered body and unyielding spirit, stands alone against the storms and shifting tides of the human world!
