Since ancient times, cultivation has been a path that defies the heavens.
Tempering the body, opening the meridians, awakening the sea of spiritual consciousness, mastering cultivation techniques, refusing to be controlled by others, and never bowing to fate: this is the path every cultivator yearns to follow.
Qin Yu was once the most dazzling genius disciple of the Tianxuan Sect. But ever since he discovered an insatiable stone mirror inside his body, his cultivation had gone backward instead of forward. Unable to break through to the Yellow Spirit Realm, he became a laughingstock and a good-for-nothing in the eyes of others. His fellow disciples bullied him relentlessly, and fighting back only made things more humiliating.
Qin Yu was miserable. If not for that strange, ill-tempered stone mirror lodged in his dantian, locking away all the true energy that entered his body so that it could only go in and never come out, those worthless wretches would have lost an arm or a leg long ago. He would never have ended up like this.
What baffled him even more was that normal true energy was milky white, while the energy inside Qin Yu was a brilliant gold, like a vast ocean.
Years of diligent cultivation had left him with no improvement in his realm, but his strength was formidable. He had simply never revealed it.
Yet this strange golden energy made him lose control of his strength, and he accidentally killed Ma Guiyun.
Ma Guiyun was not only an inner sect disciple of the Tianxuan Sect, but also the second young master of the Ma family, one of the three great clans of Longyun Commandery.
The Tianxuan Sect had no wish to provoke someone like him.
Under pressure from the furious clan, the sect master had no choice but to agree to confine Qin Yu for a year, then expel him from the sect and leave him to fend for himself.
But during that confinement, the gluttonous stone mirror finally stirred…
