Changping ran red with blood. Four hundred thousand souls were buried on the battlefield.
Lin Xian, a modern soul, escaped death amid a mountain of corpses and arrived in the late Warring States period, an age of collapsing rites and endless slaughter.
No System, no golden finger, only a clear mind that saw through human nature and weighed every gain and loss.
In the meat grinder of a chaotic age, he fought to survive as a displaced refugee, breaking through layers of schemes as he climbed to the pinnacle of the alliance among the five states.
The world said Heaven's will was already set: the six states would fall, and the Great Qin would unite the land. It was fate.
Lin Xian, who knew how history would unfold, insisted on defying the tide!
In the deadly trap at Zui City, he threw himself into the game, determined to fight for a chance at total victory!
He calculated the hearts of all under heaven, endured countless hardships and sacrifices, and tore through the shackles of his age, believing he had turned the tide of fate.

Heaven's will cannot be defied, and history cannot be changed.
