Raizou Takakura, who died of a heart attack on his way to work, is reborn in another world as the third son of a farmer, now known as Walm.
However, peace is fleeting as his homeland’s relentless conflicts continue. Walm is conscripted into the heart of battle, where he faces senseless death, experiences both happiness and horror, and sees the world through eyes dimmed by the constant presence of death.
Inevitably stained by the madness of the battlefield, Walm awakens unusual talents that he never knew he had.
Worn down and mentally strained, Walm struggles to maintain his sense of right and wrong, often resorting to alcohol and tobacco to escape the harshness of his situation.
As the war nears its bitter end in the Highserk Empire, a major disturbance looms, promising to forever alter the destiny of the entire empire.
The Supreme Master, Gu Qingfeng (also known as Gu Tianlang), is the protagonist of this book. He has slain both immortals and demons. He ascended to the unrivaled throne of both immortals and demons, and even reigned over the Nine Serenities. Consequently, he was labeled as sinful and subjected to the merciless tribulation of the Heavenly Dao. His foundation was destroyed, his throne taken away, and his whereabouts became unknown.
A hundred years later, Gu Qingfeng awakens in his own mausoleum, known as Crimson Flame Ridge or King’s Rest Ridge, thereby beginning a new legendary tale.
This world is sick and must be cured by blades and reforged in flames.
Tyranny must die, the wicked must be slain. Overthrow the heavens and the earth, remold the world.
Everything starts with the sword in my hand.
Enough, I’m going to use my own strength to defeat the entire world. Influential families, powerful court ministers, everyone is equal in my eyes… Come! Despicable Immortals and Devils, lowly families of nobility, all will die under my blade fated to destroy the world!
