When I was eighteen years old, in order to treat my mother's illness, I grabbed half of the bronze fragment left by my father and broke into the Spirit Devouring Abyss. From then on, in order to survive and to uncover the secrets in the fragments, I had to step into those desperate places that the monks talk about.
The misty forest in the depths of the Black Wind Mountains that can swallow up souls, the poisonous miasma swamp at the border of the mysterious realm that can corrode the bones of immortals, the cages containing ancient ferocious beasts under the cracks in the spiritual world, the Immortal Burial Valley where the truth of the world is hidden in the taboos of the immortal world...
They said I was a lunatic who dared to seize opportunities in the territory of the Lord of Hell. But they don't know that every time I step into the forbidden area, it's not to change my fate, but to come back alive - with news about my father, medicine that can cure my mother, and those who look down on me, and step on them severely.
Purpose: Using the grassroots boy Lin Mo's counterattack as the backbone, and the power game of the "Spirit Devouring Pearl" as the blood, explore the core of "power itself has no good or evil, and the mind of the person who holds it determines the world."
The protagonist goes from an ant who passively accepts his fate to a strong man who actively controls the soul-devouring power. He constantly makes choices between revenge and protection: he needs to fight against the hegemonic ambitions of the Xuantian Sect, but also resists the alienation temptation brought by power. In the end, by insisting on "not being swallowed by power", he breaks the cycle of "the strong must do evil" and reveals that true strength does not lie in swallowing all things, but in guarding the bottom line and protecting the ones you love.
