Song Chong finds himself reborn in a perilous and deceitful fantasy realm, where he is forced into the military as mere cannon fodder. His sole support comes from a book that is equally perilous and deceitful, known as "The Book of Three Lifetimes." This ancient text, which has endured through time, was acquired on a stormy night, yet only three pages remain intact; the other nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-seven pages have all deteriorated. Clearly, this book has issues, and the world it exists in is even more flawed. However, But Song Chen, who stands at the very bottom, is left with no option but to crawl and degrade himself gradually until he can pierce through the haze of this world and ascend to its highest peak.
