Description
Impoverished scholar Zhang Yan discovers mystical texts that impart knowledge instantly - but each book demands a terrible price. After gaining military strategy at the cost of his family's lives and medical expertise by sacrificing his sense of taste, his lover Su Wan begs him to stop. As he wrestles with his ambition, the chancellor's sudden death implicates the poison manual he just consumed. Now he must choose: burn the cursed library to save his soul, or keep reading toward ultimate power at the cost of his humanity.
