IET

Story context

The narrative tension finally snaps as IET calls the curtain on the long struggle for karmic fortune and declares the ultimate war is here. This is a rare, raw moment where the author steps directly onto the stage, not as a character, but as a craftsman who has been meticulously building this epic for two thousand chapters. Forget the in-world debates about formations and sword-arts—this chapter is the pulsating, meta-real recognition that the chessboard is set, the pieces are in place, and the grand finale is about to be unleashed. It's part plea for support, part war cry, and a clear signal that the narrative is about to escalate beyond anything seen before.

Why it matters

This is a "breather" chapter of the highest meta-order. Do not look for new sword techniques or shocking reveals. Instead, treat this as the author turning to you, the reader, and shaking your hand. The "Struggle for Karmic Fortune" was a major psychological and strategic arc that pitted destiny against action. This chapter formally closes that ledger and opens a new, darker book. For new readers, this is a sign that the massive lore and buildup have served their purpose. For veterans, this is the signal to grip your seat. The author's request for votes is part of the ritual—by supporting him now, you are, in the Xianxia tradition, giving him your "Karmic Merit" to fuel the final, greatest battle.
