The Anatomy of Immortality
To the world, Cultivators are noble Immortals soaring on flying swords. To fourteen-year-old orphan Wei Yan, they are just wealthy hypocrites who can guarantee him three meals a day."
Armed with nothing but a street rat’s paranoia and a terrifyingly analytical mind, Wei Yan cheats his way into the prestigious Azure Cloud Sect as a lowly servant. He doesn't want to challenge the heavens or seek eternal life; he just wants to survive the winter without freezing in a mud pit.
But he quickly learns that the "Righteous" path is built on a mountain of corpses.
When a benevolent Elder’s secret blood-ritual leaves Wei Yan slaughtered and tossed into a mass grave, his story should have ended. Instead, his unyielding grudge awakens a dying, parasitic Heavenly Treasure hidden amongst the bones.
Resurrected but burdened by an artifact that devours eighty percent of his Qi, Wei Yan is forced to wage a hidden war. Trapped in a sect of smiling butchers, he uses his unique "Eye for Flaws" to reverse-engineer discarded garbage into potent bootleg pills, building a black-market empire right under his killers' noses.
Wei Yan isn't a chosen hero, and he doesn't have a legendary bloodline. But he knows how to set a trap, he knows how to spot a weakness, and he knows exactly what a man will do to survive.
The Heavens demand perfection. Wei Yan is going to exploit their flaws.
