In the intricate tapestry of destiny, Hou Yu, hailed as a cultivation virtuoso in his lineage, finds himself ensnared in a web of deceit, branded a frivolous scapegoat by conniving kin, all to pave the path for his elder brother’s ascent. Cast into the abyss as an offering to the formidable God of War, his unwilling sacrifice triggers the awakening of the slumbering Evil God. Drawn by the irresistible allure of Taibai, the sinister deity, he strikes a perilous pact, binding his fate to the malevolent entity. Henceforth, as he surrenders offerings to the insatiable Evil God, he unlocks a trove of rewards. This saga, also known as “Covenant of Shadows,” delves into the symbiotic dance between mortal and deity, where darkness and light converge in a precarious balance
