Ye Heng, once the greatest genius in a thousand years at Leiyun Sect, had reached the eighth level of the Enlightenment Realm at just eighteen. His future was bright.
Then, overnight, everything changed. His cultivation vanished, he was cut off from all nine laws, and his memories were left in tatters. Once the sect’s celebrated direct disciple, he became a menial who could be bullied by anyone.
Inside that body, a science prodigy from Earth awakened.
With no System and no miraculous fortune from the heavens, his only advantages were modern scientific knowledge and an extraordinarily powerful spiritual sense.
Explosions, sound, light and shadow, the geography of mineral deposits... What cultivators saw as mysterious spells and formations all followed discernible patterns in his eyes. Discarded spell crystals became cultivation resources in his hands, while formation disasters that everyone else avoided became weapons for killing his enemies.
When the yellow dog who had been his only companion died before his eyes, Ye Heng finally understood: without power, he couldn’t even protect what he cherished.
From then on, he sought the Dao through knowledge, used his spiritual sense to see through all things, and turned laws and formations to his own use.
But he had no idea that someone was already deeply wary of his rise.
