Luo Li has spent his entire life as an assassin in the bleak Yinzhou Continent, honed into a weapon by the Tianjue Killing Hall. When his father makes the ultimate sacrifice to free him from this prison, Luo Li seizes the chance to escape to the Zhongtian Main World, where the true secrets of immortal cultivation are said to exist. But leaving behind his old life proves harder than anticipated. Luo Li carries the scars of his past with him, and the world beyond Yinzhou operates by rules he never learned. As he searches for authentic paths to transcendence, he discovers that his killer's instincts and his hunger for freedom are constantly at war. Enemies from his former life pursue him while new allies test whether someone forged entirely as a tool can ever become something more. The question isn't just whether Luo Li can master cultivation, but whether he can reclaim his humanity in the process.
