Lin Han’s family was wiped out, leaving him burdened with a blood feud. By chance, he obtained the legendary divine weapon, the Soul-Sunder Sword. Even the Netherworld Heavenly Emperor coveted this blade, but wielding it came at the cost of the user’s life force. When he first entered the Tianling Sect, he was an outcast from another land and prey coveted by everyone. Every step was a test; every swing of his sword was a fight to survive.
Sect trials, attacks by foreign races, corrupting black fog, and peril in the spirit mines: enemies and schemes were never far away. Time and again, he pushed beyond his limits and awakened the potential of his Heaven’s Mandate bloodline, but he also edged ever closer to destroying himself.
The Soul-Sunder Sword thirsted for blood, and the Heaven’s Mandate bloodline awakened. The sect master’s tests, Jinyu’s hostility, and the Netherworld Heavenly Emperor’s watchful gaze: everyone was waiting for him to fall into the abyss. But in the face of despair, Lin Han gritted his teeth and sneered. “So what if I’m bound by Heaven’s Mandate? So what if I wield the Soul-Sunder Sword? My fate has always been mine to control!”
When his Heaven’s Mandate bloodline fully awakens and the Soul-Sunder Sword’s true power emerges, he will carve a path to survival against the heavens through an endless sea of blood, and fight his way to a new destiny!
