He died betrayed. He was given a second chance. But the future he remembered was never the whole truth. Jin Yue thought his second life would be simple: avoid the mistakes of his past, grow stronger, protect those he cared about, and change the fate that once led him to death. But the more he changes the future, the more he realizes that something is wrong. Records from his first life no longer match reality. Someone has been watching him. The mysterious Shadow Veil possesses information that should not exist, while the name Yun Wutian repeatedly appears behind events that reach far beyond the Jin Clan. And within Jin Yue lies the Celestial Vein—a power connected to an ancient mystery surrounding the path to immortality. As Jin Yue enters the world of Great Xia, clashes with its greatest young cultivators, explores the Starfall Ruins, and uncovers the secrets of the Broken Ascension Path, even his greatest advantage begins to reveal its limits. The Heavenly System that once seemed like nothing more than a miraculous gift was created for a far greater purpose. It can analyze techniques. It can reconstruct ancient inheritances. It can guide cultivation. But it cannot give Jin Yue something he must discover for himself. Understanding. When Yun Wutian's ambitions awaken the ancient forces surrounding the Celestial Vein, Jin Yue is drawn into a conflict that reaches beyond the Mortal World. The truth behind his death, his regression, the Heavenly System, and the broken path to immortality gradually comes to light. And waiting beyond that broken path is something that should never have survived. Jin Yue will have to face an ancient consciousness, uncover the original purpose of the Heavenly System, and confront the truth of why he returned to the past. But the final battle will not be won simply by becoming stronger. Because Heaven may have a path prepared for him—but Jin Yue has never intended to walk someone else's path. In the end, he must make the one choice no System can make for him: choose his own destiny.
