In the Great Spirit Empire, the fate of Lin Yisheng, a seventeen-year-old slave, was meant to end at the sacred altar. He was one of fifty human sacrifices chosen for the annual Spring Festival. Kneeling before the Holy Spirit Temple, he struggled to contain his despair after his mentor was slaughtered for the pleasure of a noble. But this slave refused to die. Driven by the need for vengeance, he wielded the Invisible Shadow Sword, a secret heirloom once used by assassins. Using the deadly technique “One Step, One Kill,” Lin Yisheng swiftly cut down the priests and even the divine envoy of the Holy Spirit Temple, igniting a chaos unseen on the continent for thousands of years. Hunted by armored soldiers and deadly Bronze Knights, he fled into the Misty Forest, one of the seven forbidden regions of the Eastern Spirit Continent—a place from which no one was said to return. Within the eternal fog, his fate shifted. He encountered Yin Chengdao, a dying spiritual cultivator who offered to pass on all his cultivation and memories through a “soul inheritance.” Will this rebellious slave succeed in absorbing this extraordinary power and return to destroy the cruel Empire and the corrupt Holy Spirit Cult? Or will he vanish forever in the place where all legend meet their end?
