Lin Zhao awakens the SSS-rank talent [Heaven-Burning Battle Spirit], shaking the entire world!
Hailed as the greatest human prodigy in ten thousand years and a future War God, he bears the hopes of countless millions. All he has to do is receive the Heavenly Venerable’s blessing, then head to the battlefield of the myriad races and fight for a thousand years of fortune for humanity.
But at the nationally televised final rite of spiritual awakening, when the military comes to recruit him, Lin Zhao speaks before everyone:
“Teacher, I will not enlist!”
Overnight, the greatest prodigy in ten thousand years becomes humanity’s number one deserter.
His teacher is heartbroken. His classmates turn against him. His parents are ashamed of him, and countless millions wish they could nail him to a pillar of shame.
No one knows that Lin Zhao was once the last Great Emperor of humanity, ten thousand years in the future.
In his previous life, he became an emperor after wading through mountains of corpses and seas of blood. For three thousand years, he held up humanity’s last city with his own hands, yet in the end could only watch helplessly as humanity was destroyed.
And that battlefield of the myriad races, which everyone regarded as an honor, was in fact a deadly trap laid by the demon race for humanity’s prodigies!
In this life, Lin Zhao seeks no fleeting fame. He wants only humanity to thrive for all eternity.
Let the world curse him. Let his family and friends misunderstand him.
He sits alone in Gui Xu, cultivating the imperial path anew, forging an army from the lingering souls of the fallen heroes, eliminating demons in hiding, and restoring the foundations humanity has built over ten thousand years.
Everyone thinks he is a coward afraid to die.
Little do they know that in a mere hundred years, he will return to the Imperial Realm and crush the myriad races beneath his heel!
Then the demon tide sweeps across the land, and humanity’s cities teeter on the brink of ruin.
At last, the deserter reviled by countless millions rises, holding Zhongtian City aloft as a million heroic spirits open their eyes behind him.
“I refused to enlist, not because I was afraid to die.”
“But because that battlefield does not deserve to bury humanity’s future!”
