In a cosmos where the Heavenly Dao is broken, its seven sentient Aspects warring for dominance, true power is not found in brute force, but in understanding. In the Empyrean Realm, Jian Feng, the Young Lord of the ancient Azure Dragon Clan, is a prodigy unlike any other. Born with an unnerving calm and a mind that operates on a level beyond his peers, he is respected for his wisdom and feared for his unfathomable intellect. While others cultivate Qi, Jian Feng cultivates schemes, his every move part of a grand design years in the making. His serene life of study is shattered when a silent, horrifying plague descends upon his clan’s territories. Entire villages are discovered not dead, but hollowed out, their life force and spiritual energy harvested with terrifying precision, leaving behind nothing but fragile husks of dust. Where others see a curse or a demonic art, Jian Feng perceives the horrifying truth through his secret ability: the Star-Chart of a Myriad Daos. This system, bound to his soul, is no simple interface; it allows him to perceive the fundamental threads of reality. He sees that the plague is no random act of violence, but a clean, industrial-scale harvest, its tracks erased by a masterful manipulation of the Dao of Ruin. This single crime pulls Jian Feng into a vortex of cosmic conspiracy. He soon discovers the "whispering plague" is merely a symptom of the silent war between the seven Aspects of the Heavenly Dao, a conflict that threatens to unravel all of existence. To confront a power that can challenge heaven itself, Jian Feng knows he cannot rely on strength alone. He must forge an alliance of unprecedented power—the Celestial Constellation.

I am the youngest son of the Jaegal clan’s leader — and a failure. At twelve, they discovered I suffered from an incurable condition: I couldn’t cultivate or manipulate formations. To my family, that was the same as being dead. Without honor or future, I was sent to a place no one took seriously: the Low Mist Sect — a handful of forgotten monks in the mountains, with no warriors, no reputation, no power. The only thing they cultivate is silence. Mocked as cowards and laughed at by the entire murim world, they never raise swords — but they know exactly where swords will fall. And it was there, among shadows and silence… that I began to see the world as it truly is.

In a world dominated by strength, where powerful clans and ancient sects control life and death, the weak do not survive... unless they think like a fox. Li Wei, a former criminal advisor from Earth with an absolute mastery of manipulation, is reborn into the body of a failed disciple in the world of Jianghu—a land governed by honor, cultivation, and endless combat.

Around him, twelve powerful, beautiful, and dangerous women from different races join him, each one fascinated not by his strength, but by his vision. But the real game is just beginning.

When his blood touches it, a hidden system activates—unlocking a magical space, accelerated time, and a new path: cultivating Life Points by growing life itself.

Instead, he quietly builds a secret organization—empowering his most dedicated students with subsystems that reward discipline, curiosity, and vision. From classroom desks to Martian soil, from school clubs to interstellar councils, a silent revolution begins. The seeds of change are planted in young minds. But somewhere beyond the stars... something watches. And the system that started it all? It might not have come from a friend.
