The Life I Take Is Destiny

I thought that Lin Hao was unlucky enough to become a useless person in cultivation after traveling through time. Unexpectedly, the worse thing was to come - he was forcibly taken away by a powerful person from the upper realm! However, just when he was about to succeed, Lin Hao accidentally awakened the mysterious "life-stealing" system in his body, which instead took away all the opponent's cultivation and memory. From then on, Lin Hao embarked on the road of counterattack, plundering the lives of the geniuses from all over the world for his own use. But he gradually discovered that behind the fates he had stolen, there seemed to be a shocking chess game sweeping the world... And is he himself a chess player or a chess piece?
