Shen Yuan was a gray-fated servant deemed “without a fate” by the Heavenly Dao. With no path to follow and no fate to cultivate, he wasn't even worthy of a single thread of destiny, and suffered constant abuse.
Then the Fate-Eater Mark on his left collarbone awakened. Suddenly, he could see fate threads wrapped around everyone in the world: white, blue, purple, gold... He could see other people's fates. And he could devour them.
“Devour it, and you'll become white-fated.”
Gray fate, no path. It all began when he swallowed his first wisp of white fate.
He devoured the fates of geniuses, climbed the sect's ranks, and shattered the Heavenly Dao's shackles. Along the way, a cool and aloof sword cultivator wielded her sword for him, a bewitching poison witch shielded him from tribulations, a gentle healer stayed by his side, a domineering empress made him her blade, and a sharp-tongued artifact spirit called him a pauper but never left him.
He never went looking for trouble. But anyone who crossed him would lose even their fate.
The man without a fate would, in the end, ascend to the realm beyond fate.
