A sudden, deathly white light sweeps across the world, dragging Feng Chuxiao, Yu Xiange, Lu Zhan, and Ding Muzhi into the Tianji Reincarnation Fortress built by the Ruin Lord Cang Heng.
They share ten public lives. When the count reaches zero, everyone is annihilated. Monsters freeze for only three seconds before going berserk and slaughtering everyone in sight. Each person awakens a unique ability tied to their trauma, and powerful moves bring mental backlash. There are no cheats and no lucky breaks. Survival depends on tactical wits and fighting together through life and death.
Feng Chuxiao, a criminal investigator burdened by a wrongful accusation who can unravel anything by tracing the past, encounters Yu Xiange, haunted by the deaths of her comrades and unmatched in her shadowy assassinations. In the face of despair, he instinctively protects her every time, and she is willing to take a lethal blow for him. Their love is hidden in the way they risk everything to save each other.
In the middle realm, the Order faction survives through submission and sacrifice, while the Rebellion faction has plotted for a century. Long-buried truths slowly come to light: Cang Heng, once a protector, shut himself away and became a god because of humanity’s evil. The first leader, Yu Zhanqiu, was driven apart by an illusion and reduced to a mad remnant. The squad battles through trials of their inner demons, withstands the commanders’ siege, and gathers artifacts such as life runes and life cores, gradually breaking free of the chains of fate.
The Ruin Lord unleashes a divine punishment of primordial power, locking away their realms. The four venture deep into the underground channels alone and gather all nine life tracks to unlock their metamorphosed forms, freeing everyone’s abilities from backlash. Before the divine throne, Cang Heng sees through his century-old obsession and willingly dissolves his divinity, but the original evil of reincarnation buried deep underground breaks free.
The century-old cycle of reincarnation is shattered, but the resentment of all beings remains. With their bonds as their shield and the faint light of their life tracks in hand, the four face the deepest despair and original sin in the world.
Not bad, interesting!
