In a world where power is everything and the strong devour the weak, Ling Tian finds himself reborn in the body of a struggling disciple within the ruthless Qinglian Sect. With no grand destiny and a ticking clock on his survival, Ling Tian's prospects seem grim—until an enigmatic system awakens within him, offering a chance at something far greater than mere survival. As whispers of the mysterious "Eclipse Syndicate" begin to spread through the shadows, no one knows who—or what—pulls the strings. From mercenaries and assassins to unseen forces that shape the fate of nations, this hidden organization is unlike any other. And at its heart lies Ling Tian, a man with ambitions that stretch far beyond the mortal realm. But as power grows, so do the dangers. In a world built on secrets, deception, and ancient grudges, Ling Tian must navigate a treacherous path, where trust is a luxury and betrayal lurks around every corner. With enemies in the light and allies in the dark, how far will Ling Tian go to seize control of his own destiny? In the shadows, the game begins. And only one rule matters: Win, no matter the cost. ---Publishing simultaneously on WebNovel, Scribblehub, and Royal Road under the same username.
