Fragments of an Old Record: Changing Fate in the Martial World

After dying suddenly from overwork, office drone Shen Yan accidentally falls into the perilous Five Poisons territory of Yundian, landing right in front of Lan Fengyue, the Five Poisons Saintess. A poison jar explodes, and a purple miasma sweeps across the sky. He risks his life to shield her from the deadly poison, and when he wakes, a scorching natal Gu mark has appeared on his chest. With no System to aid him, all he has in his mind are scattered remnants of old texts. Once those fragments are exhausted, he will have no way to foresee anything. He has no inner power and knows no cultivation methods. He has learned only three crude moves for self-defense, and must struggle to survive in the danger-ridden Medicine King Valley. A secret letter from the Azure Dragon Society is quietly delivered to the sect, while undercurrents surge through the martial world and webs of fate slowly unfold. Having witnessed too many people rush toward their destined tragic ends, Shen Yan refuses to stand by and watch tragedy repeat itself. A cold copper coin engraved with a dragon rests in his palm. Now that he is caught up in this chaotic martial world, he will use his own strength to rewrite the fates that have already been set in stone.
