No One Can Cross All Three Realms

Miasma does not rise from the abyss. It is born in the human heart. A single thought of greed or fear, a single thought of sorrow or hatred, can nourish monsters and devour the homes of mortals and the demon realm. Shen Heng, who could see the workings of cause and effect, and Su Wei, whose heart was full of compassion, met in a decaying little town. They traveled north together, crossing a land ravaged beyond recognition and glimpsing the seals and sacrifices left behind by generations. Every barrier could only delay disaster. None could dispel the darkness in people's hearts. Caught between observing and saving, they slowly searched for where to draw the line. Amid the world's insoluble suffering, those who journey on still seek the light. [Author's note] This book has no Qi Refining, no Golden Core, no Nascent Soul, and no cultivation levels. If you're waiting for the protagonist to meditate and break through, or slay demons and seize treasures, you won't find that here. The calamities in this world do not come from demons and monsters. They are born from the human heart.
