Nine Swords That Shatter the Heavens

A boy of humble origins accidentally finds the Divine Dragon Sword and wins the recognition of its sword spirit. As he searches for the nine divine swords left behind by the Azure Emperor, he inherits the emperor's legacy and gains an ancient body-tempering art that transforms his physique. He rises from a good-for-nothing who couldn't cultivate and was scorned by his clanmates to a figure standing atop the continent, saving it from catastrophe.
