Shadow Weaver of the Broken Heavens

In the fractured cultivation realm of the Broken Heavens, strength is measured in violence and nine major realms of absolute power. Yu Tian starts as a nobody - a crippled disciple destined for the slaughterhouse. But while others cultivate their meridians, Yu Tian cultivates secrets. Armed with an analytical mind and a ruthless willingness to mutilate his own soul for an edge, he operates from the shadows. When he discovers a lost cultivation method that allows him to manipulate the karmic threads of others, he begins his ascent not as a frontline warrior, but as the master puppeteer steering empires into ruin. Loyal only to the few who earned his trust, and merciless to those who cross him, Yu Tian must play a lethal game of chess against ancient sects. If he fails, his soul will be ground into spiritual dust; if he succeeds, he will become the hand that reshapes the cosmos.
