Amid the shifting fortunes of a fantastical world, Jiang Sheng was once the young master of the Jiang family. He should have been enjoying the happiest day of his life, but instead disaster struck. His family was wiped out, and the woman he loved was taken from him. Fate's crushing blow sent him tumbling from the clouds into the dirt.
As he wandered, he searched for his relatives with hope in his heart, only to discover that even those closest to him had become unrecognizable. He tasted the world's coldness and betrayal in full. Just as he was losing all hope, he chanced upon a mysterious old man and embarked on the traditional path of cultivation.
Without the aid of a System, he relied on his own perseverance and insight to make breakthrough after breakthrough in alchemy and cultivation. Faced with his old enemies and the world's malice, he would no longer endure in silence. With ruthless resolve, he slaughtered every villain.
Yet one tender attachment remained in his heart: his sole love, Liu Xiao. As he pursued greater strength, he also strove to protect the woman he loved and save the last of his family.
See how he rises from adversity in this fantastical world, breaks the chains of fate, and grows from a despised “piece of trash” into an alchemy god revered by all, writing a legend of his own!
