Dan Feng, a titan of industry, dies at the height of his power and awakens in the body of a teenage slave in another world — a world where the human soul manifests as tools and weapons. His soul? A small, rusty blacksmith's hammer, seemingly worthless. But the mind that once brought global markets to their knees doesn't stop scheming, even in chains. In the forge that has become his prison, every whisper could be a deadly threat, and every fellow prisoner might carry a secret as old as the gods. Dan Feng's second chance to conquer a world... this time not with money, but with soul power — if he survives.
