During a thunderstorm on the day of Jingzhe, Mu Jiuge, a boy from Heluo Village, awakened a pale-white sword bone. One slash cleaved open the celestial river stretching three thousand li, only for him to see black blood seeping from the bronze gates at the end of the sea of clouds: the countdown to Heaven’s cataclysm! The Hundred Schools of Thought swarmed in. The Mohists wanted to use his flesh and blood to forge a god-slaying mech; the Yin-Yang School used the essence of three hundred boys to divine his fate; the Legalists laid a vast net to arrest him as the “culprit behind the cataclysm.” Meanwhile, on the observatory at Jixia Academy, seventy-two destiny lamps revealed a strange sight in his eyes: golden Xuanyuan markings in his left, and Chiyou’s demonic flames in his right!
**“You are neither human nor demon, but the Child of Chaos abandoned by Heaven!”**
Seeking the truth, Mu Jiuge tramples across the Eight Wastelands:
▲ He defeats the Mohists’ Celestial Sphere Ruler with a single sword strike, only for the broken measuring rod to reveal a demon god’s finger bone;
▲ He enters the Dragon Palace in Yunmeng Marsh, where the missing “Nine on top, One beneath” passage on the Luoshu stele carried by Bixi turns out to be the activation password for the god-slaying machine;
▲ He passes through Jixia Academy’s trial at the gate, where the Heart-Examining Bell detects the evil intent that the Yellow Emperor once cut from himself, sleeping within Mu Jiuge’s sword bone!
Only when the Hundred Schools’ sacred artifact, the “Non-Aggression Sword Case,” devours the military tiger tally and the Confucian jade cong does he discover that the cataclysm is actually a scheme plotted by the ancestors of the Hundred Schools for three thousand years. The Nine Cauldrons were never meant to suppress a demon god. They were suppressing humanity’s greed to “make Heaven’s Way the sole authority”! Now, a giant bronze hand reaches out from a crack in the Heavenly Ruins, gripping a Green Duckweed Sword that shares his origins...
**“Forge my sword bone in the flames of tribulation, and prove my Way through the Hundred Schools!”**
Mu Jiuge swings his sword toward the thirty-six shattered immortal realms. Behind him, the sacred halls of the Hundred Schools crumble; before him, a demon god of chaos devours the stars. This strike will sever the celestial river, shatter the primordial wilderness, and rewrite the book of life and death for the Three Realms!
