In a world ravaged by creatures from the Abyss, A-Rank ability user Wei Heng stood as one of humanity's last pillars of strength. But even he was not enough. In the final, desperate battle against an overwhelming abyssal tide, humanity was annihilated. With his last breath, Wei Heng's blood fell upon a mysterious, ancient book, binding his soul to it just as death claimed him.
He awakens not in the afterlife, but in a new world of cultivators. Reborn as a peerless genius, he spends the next ten thousand years mastering the dao, reaching the peak of the Tribulation Realm. The ancient book reveals itself as the Inheritance of 100,000 Peak Powerhouses, granting him the legacy of legendary figures in exchange for completing their trials. On the verge of transcendence, he faces the final requirement: to resolve his deepest regret. But his greatest failure—the inability to save his family from the Abyssal invasion—is a wound that time cannot heal. At the end of his 10,000-year lifespan, he dies, one step away from true power.
Yet, the book offers one final chance. Wei Heng opens his eyes again, not in the cultivation world, but back in his old high school classroom, seventeen years old again, months before the apocalypse began. This time, the final requirement is fulfilled. He now possesses the complete inheritance of 100,000 legends, the experience of a ten-thousand-year-old cultivator, and perfect knowledge of the future.
