On the Cangxuan Continent, where spiritual energy is in decline, sixteen-year-old Lin Han scrapes by under the label of “cultivation good-for-nothing.” After failing the spiritual aptitude test three times, he is cast out by his family and reduced to working as a woodcutter in Qingshi Town. Then his ancestral woodcutting blade awakens the bloodline of the ancient Chaos Azure Lotus.
This is no simple tale of a good-for-nothing making a comeback. When cultivation becomes a game rigged for the privileged, and immortality turns into an eternal shackle that binds the soul, only those awakened by chaos dare to question the heavens: Is cultivating to become an immortal a path beyond the cycle of reincarnation, or a deception by the Heavenly Dao to keep cultivators in captivity? The Dao Sovereign of the Chaos Azure Lotus invites you to witness how an ordinary man uses a bloodstained woodcutter’s blade to cleave through fate and inscribe new laws upon the tombstones of the gods and Buddhas of the myriad heavens.
