The Immortal Scholar's Bronze Mirror

Awakened in a sickly body, expelled from school, and dependent on reluctant relatives, Xu Qing faces a humiliating future. Worse, a mysterious bronze mirror reveals a horrifying truth: he has only three years left to live. But this isn't just a death sentence. The same bronze mirror, now fused with his soul, grants him \"Soul-Fixing\" — an unparalleled mental clarity and control. It lets him devour knowledge, master ancient martial arts with unnatural speed, and even manipulate the vital energy within his weakening body. With every book he reads, every stance he practices, his power grows, yet the mirror whispers of a path far beyond simple scholarly success or martial prowess: a destiny that demands he \"go to the sky.\" Can a dying scholar truly ascend to immortality, or is this new power merely a cruel countdown?
