Shu Ren found himself bleeding to death, a crazed cultivator looming over him, watching his futile struggle to survive. He despised the face of that cultivator, not because of his own imminent demise, but because he was powerless to save his family. As darkness closed in on him, Shu Ren thought his life had come to an end. But to his surprise, he awoke to find it was the same morning once again. Initially, he believed it was just a dream. But soon, he came to realize that it was an ability he had come to possess. Yet, in a world of cultivation where death is oftentimes seen as a preferable end, this was no more than a shackle.
