In this brutal fantasy world where the strong prey on the weak, Zhou Chen guards the scattered pages of an obscure sword sect and cultivates the Turtle-Breathing Art to its twelfth level. After being hunted by his enemies for three months, Yin Hong burns his own blood to draw his sword, then slaughters the pursuers to the last man.
When a patient strategist who has kept his blade sheathed for ten years meets a daredevil who stakes his life to break out of impossible situations, two outcasts written off as having shattered sword bones somehow carve out a path to survival while besieged by powerful experts of the Profound Connection Realm, despite being only at the Spirit Transformation Realm!
From a remote border town to the ninth heaven, they overturn the rules as nobodies: Zhou Chen lays formations to ambush and kill ancient monsters undergoing tribulation, while Yin Hong slays a holy son across realms.
When an invincible supreme expert brings down heavenly punishment, two streaks of sword light pierce the sky. Who says you need a golden finger to walk the path of the sword that reaches the heavens?
