In the celestial empire, during the ninth year of the Mandate of Heaven,
Chaos reigns across the land, and the people suffer.
The royal governance collapses, and western barbarians with their pantheon of gods invade.
New warlords arise, claiming territories; the Taiping rebels wreak havoc, leading to widespread misery.
Calamities like floods, droughts, earthquakes, sandstorms, tornadoes, acid rain, blood moons, and meteor falls occur in succession.
Countless demons roam, strange beings thrive, spirits mingle with the inexplicable, and mysterious phenomena arise.
In these dark and tumultuous times, Tao Qian opens his eyes to find himself about to be beheaded at the vegetable market...

and his new life starts with catastrophe.
He awakens as the young master of a low-tier demonic sect.
His adoptive father has been assassinated.
His predecessor was ambushed and killed mid-breakthrough.
The sect elders are tearing each other apart for power, and no one respects the so-called “young master.”
But then...
Ding!

“Immortality is bait, let the world’s heroes fight to the death for it.”
When the ancient scripture resurfaces, chaos erupts across the land. Kingdoms fall, alliances shatter, and ambition floods the world like wildfire.
The sages claimed that immortality was a dead end, an unreachable dream.
But I saw hope in the ashes of despair.
I will carve my own path toward eternal life, a path that belongs to me alone.
And even if it ends in death, I will have no regrets.
Create the future in nothingness, find the truth in dreams, travel across the heavens, practice the laws of all worlds, understand the endless way, refine the false and return it to the true, and achieve eternal immortality.

[Reminder once again: If you enjoy brainless power fantasy and non-stop slaughter, read with caution!!!]
Gu Ming accidentally transmigrated into the cultivation world. At the start, he has endless lifespan and awakens the talent "Borrowing Life" — if he is killed, he will randomly sacrifice a close relative of his enemy to resurrect himself, and even gain one random ability from the sacrificed person.
Need a cultivation license to join a sect?
Not talented enough, so you have to pay to cultivate?
What? I don’t even qualify to pay to cultivate?
Fine! You won't let me cultivate, huh?
Then I'll just outlast everyone — while others study their way to Immortality, Gu Ming endures his way there with sheer lifespan.
Want to kill me? Go ahead. Kill me, and your whole family dies, starting with your parents. Let’s see how many times your family can afford to be sacrificed!!
...
Years later, Gu Ming’s little secret is accidentally exposed. He becomes a plague god in the eyes of all realms — wherever he goes, fear follows. People avoid him like the plague.
Especially those powerful cultivators who like flashy, explosive battles — every time they want a duel, they make sure to steer clear of Gu Ming, fearing they might accidentally kill him.
One righteous sect leader refused to believe the rumors. He found Gu Ming and arrogantly declared:
“I have no family, no ties, I stand alone. Plague God Gu Ming, come — today, I shall rid the worlds of your evil!”
Zhou Heng fell into a lower-dimensional world, fortunately, his essence remained that of a higher being.
In the world of gods and spirits, he reshaped the mythos and became the First God.
In the world of horror and dread, he scattered the mists of despair and became the light of hope.
In the world of wizards, he pursued truth, until he became truth itself.
In the world of cultivation, he glimpsed the Great Dao and forged his own true path.
...
And when he returned to the higher dimensions, he realized, he had already become a miracle incarnate.
He broke through the boundaries of dimension, ascending into true eternity and immortality.
[Dark + Traditional Cultivation! The protagonist follows a twisted path—decisive, ruthless, and anything but kind. If you prefer gentle heroes, this isn’t for you.]
The so-called Immortal Path is nothing but hypocrisy—built on blood and bones.
Lu Li claws his way out of a pit of corpses, uses bones as his lantern, and walks a road only true demons dare tread.
From that moment on: killing, soul harvesting, bone refinement, devouring the heavens.
If I ascend, I shall butcher all who call themselves Immortals.
— The Four Steps of Cultivation:
Qi Condensation (10 Layers) → Foundation Establishment → Golden Core → Nascent Soul

When his parents' blood turned cold in the cracks of the bluestone, Li Feng understood: If you want to live, you have to be dirtier than evil people and more despicable than mud!
Kneeling and licking the Black Tiger Gang? Voluntarily practicing the life-shortening Five Poison Palm? Using his subordinates as sacrifices? Selling his affectionate Taoist partner to be used as a furnace? As long as he can climb up, he won't blink an eye!
The body is exhausted? Turned into a corpse! The soul is on the verge of collapse? Ten thousand ghosts are imprisoned in the body! The power is complicated and difficult to control? Bet your life on the unity of body and soul!
From then on, the black market had an extra walking taboo, with corpses as coffins and ghosts as servants, and wherever the blood mist of the underworld passed, the souls of all living beings became nutrients!

“Blood Demon, hand over the fragments of the Immortal Realm!”
A crimson light fell silently through the night…
— One hundred years later —
“Blood Demon, are you truly going to abandon me, Cang Yun?!”
“Where could you even go?!”
“So what?”
“What do your lives have to do with me?!”
In the Sea of Demon Cultivation—
“Kneel and call me Patriarch… and you may live.”
“A so-called Patriarch… is simply the butcher who outlived the rest.”
