"In a world where power is forged through cultivation, Long Wuqing rises from the ashes of a razed village, wielding a forbidden Dao Artifact-the Heaven-Mocking Pearl.
Consuming essence, memory, and legacy, he infiltrates the Azure Sect, turning its strength into his sustenance. As mainland sects hunt for aberrants like him, Wuqing orchestrates a silent revolution, not to conquer, but to devour. Book One: The Azure Collapse is a chilling tale of ruthless evolution and the end of illusions."
