The Undying Mad God

The boundless Mingyang Realm encompasses three vast cultivation star domains, separated by billions of miles: the Mortal Sea, Golden Sun, and Sacred Dragon. Each domain is home to countless sects and tangled factions. Righteous and demonic sects, cultivator clans, and city alliances all hold sway, their forces intertwined in a vast and brutal game of cultivation, where deceit, grudges, and feuds lurk at every turn.

Ling Haicheng, the protagonist, was once an ordinary cultivator in a third-rate sect. After ten years of cultivation, he has finally reached the fourteenth layer of Qi Refining. For ordinary cultivators, reaching this stage means that with sufficient resources, they can break through to Foundation Establishment. But at the crucial moment when Ling Haicheng attempts that breakthrough, he defies the heavens and draws down the Ninefold Heavenly Tribulation, a calamity that descends only when someone breaks through to Nascent Soul. With no supreme treasure to protect him, Ling Haicheng withstands the tribulation with his own body, only to have his soul obliterated by the ninth bolt. He dies on his sect's Enlightenment Peak.

Hundreds of years pass. Golden light shoots into the sky from the site of his death on Enlightenment Peak, and Ling Haicheng unexpectedly comes back reborn, unlocking the one and only undying, imperishable physique in all eternity. His new existence is extraordinary: he can never advance beyond Qi Refining, yet he can stack its layers without limit. After tens of millions of years of arduous cultivation, he reaches an unprecedented nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine layers of Qi Refining.
