(A story focused on “being forced to court death” and the wisdom of survival)
Other people cultivate immortality through talent, resources, or by clinging to powerful allies.
I, Lin Qi, cultivate immortality by taking on the System's “death-seeking missions.”
Sneak into the imperial city to steal the dragon vein? Challenge a Nascent Soul monster one-on-one? Sabotage the Immortal-Demon Tournament?
System: “Dear, please keep pushing your luck right on the brink of death!”
I looked at the mission rewards, “Chaos Bloodline” and “Great Shift Divine Ability,” and swallowed hard.
So what if I'm a beggar?
With this wretched life of mine, I'm still going to make a bet against Heaven
A bet on whether this discarded pawn can turn the tables and claim the entire realm for myself.
