The Dao Trace Chronicles

In a world where cultivators shatter mountains and demons walk the earth, even murder leaves a magical fingerprint. For a lowly investigator in a celestial law enforcement agency, justice seems impossible against such power. But when he awakens a forgotten path of cultivation—the art of seeing the indelible marks of karma and magic—everything changes. Each unsolvable crime he cracks, from ritualistic killings to demonic possessions, fuels his ascent in both power and rank. He becomes a master detective in a world of gods and monsters, using supernatural forensics to expose shadowy cabals and unravel imperial conspiracies. But the deeper he digs, the clearer it becomes that all threads lead to an ancient, slumbering evil. To save the world, he must become more than a detective; he must become the ultimate arbiter of cosmic law.
