Surviving the Dharma-Ending Age: I Have a Root of Ten Thousand Arts, but Just Want to Stay Alive

At the dawn of the Age of Declining Dharma, the road to immortality was severed, and eternal life became a hopeless dream. Chen Anzhi, a prodigy from a prestigious sect who had once worked himself to death and vanished from the world, was reborn with an abundance of caution and a strange eye. He became an utterly ordinary outer-sect disciple at the first level of Qi Refining in the Jixia Academy.

Faced with a sect rife with deceit and a cultivation world filled with deadly traps at every turn, Chen Anzhi lived by one principle: "Play it safe above all. Strike from the shadows, and never take an enemy head-on." After awakening a Sacred-Grade Myriad Arts Spirit Root, he had hoped to keep his head down and survive. But the sect's orders were merciless, and a single mission drew him into a bloody conspiracy in the Demon-Sealing Pagoda behind the mountain.

With escaped monsters, scheming fellow disciples, and unknown dangers all around, Chen Anzhi held a broken talisman and an iron dagger, watching coolly from the shadows and turning others' strength against them. See how this slender young man, who values his life above all else but has plenty of brains, navigates one deadly trap after another, takes the myriad arts as his foundation, and carves out a path to longevity all his own!
