Wang Xuan is a prodigy of classical immortal cultivation, a discipline rendered nearly obsolete by the rise of technology-enhanced methods. When he's recruited into Secret Road, a clandestine organization operating in the shadows, his world explodes into chaos. Suddenly he's stealing forbidden artifacts, battling practitioners of the new synthetic arts, and uncovering conspiracies that question everything he believed about cultivation itself. The deeper Wang Xuan ventures into Secret Road's missions, the more he realizes the organization guards knowledge about an impending catastrophe that could reshape reality. To survive what's coming, he'll need to surpass every limit of human potential, pushing into territories beyond the known universe itself. Each treasure he claims and each enemy he defeats peels back another layer of deception, forcing him to confront uncomfortable truths about his heritage and the old ways. Part heist thriller, part cosmic mystery, this story thrives on constant escalation. The stakes climb relentlessly as Wang Xuan transforms from an arrogant prodigy into something far more dangerous.
