In this world of immortal cultivation, where Qi refinement reigns supreme, physical training is dismissed as the dull labor of a grunt. That is, until Lin Mo finds a jade pendant.
As a rogue cultivator with a false spiritual root, Lin Mo's future should have been a bleak struggle at the very bottom. While fighting for his life in a desperate situation, he found a dusty jade pendant beside the remains of an ancient cultivator. From that moment on, the course of his fate quietly shifted.
The pendant held no vast spiritual power, but it possessed a gentle warmth that nourished his body day and night. The torment of body refinement, which others regarded as an ordeal to avoid at all costs, became an opportunity for him to temper himself in fire. Injuries severe enough to leave cultivators at his level recovering for months would have him back on his feet in just a few days.
With a foundation that made him “impossible to kill,” Lin Mo embarked on a completely different path of body refinement. While his fellow cultivators were still scrambling to dodge a single sword aura, he could already withstand magical treasures with his bare flesh. While others begged for healing pills, he only grew more formidable the longer he fought.
Yet as the name “Lin Mo, the Unkillable” grew famous, eyes began turning toward him from the shadows. Alchemy masters wanted to dissect his body, demonic cultivators saw him as a living treasure, and the lofty Qi refiners could not tolerate a mere “grunt” shaking the established order.
From an insignificant rogue cultivator in the Burial Bone Abyss to a legend who could withstand heavenly tribulation with his flesh and blood, Lin Mo walked a solitary road strewn with thorns and soaked in blood and fire. When the truth behind every secret was finally revealed, the cultivation world realized in astonishment that the unremarkable jade pendant was guiding him toward more than one man's immortality. It pointed to a long-forgotten path, one of using the body as jade to achieve undying, eternal… godhood.
While everyone else cultivates Qi and commands swords, I choose to take every blow with my own body.
