   This is not a story of becoming an immortal, but an epic tale of cultivators. When his sword points to the abyss, the shattered void reveals a karmic prison forged by the obsessions of all beings. Those who perished in the ancient times, those who transcended tribulations, were they defying fate, or were they searching for the glimmer of humanity extinguished by immortal arts? This book not only offers a thrilling adventure but also profound reflections on humanity and the meaning of life. Furthermore, it uses a blood-and-fire allegory of enlightenment to unveil the mysteries of humanity behind the cultivation civilization. Immortal arts can move mountains and fill seas, but what is most difficult to subdue is always the undying flame of mortal desire within the human heart.
