    Reader note

    Highly recommended! I'm recommending a new dark fantasy cultivation novel. The premise is ruthless—the Heavenly Court monopolizes spiritual energy, and cultivators rely entirely on borrowing to cultivate. If they can't repay, they're wiped out, forced to become firewood, or have their fathers' debts passed down to their children. It portrays "cultivation" as a bloody form of debt slavery. The protagonist, Lin Yan, starts out burdened with his father's debts as a menial laborer. His cheat ability, the "Broken Contract Eye," can absorb the deadly debts, but the power comes at a price. The plot is suffocatingly oppressive; every character is bent over by debt, yet their eyes burn with an inextinguishable fire. It will be very agonizing, but also very exhilarating—the kind of book you have to grit your teeth and swallow bit by bit to survive.
