The Han Jade Immortal Clan: From Farming to Ruling the Immortal Realm

On the day the Lin family of Qingya Village unearthed a vein of thousand-year-old cold jade marrow, the mortal members of the fifty-seventh branch knelt until the ancestral hall’s bricks were worn through. Old Ancestor Lin Yuangang burned through his lifespan to drive off a rogue Golden Core cultivator. The Cheng generation hastily married off daughters from three concubine branches overnight in exchange for a fragment of the Canglang Art. A young man of the Shi generation hid a highly poisonous Ice Soul Pill in the rouge box among the betrothal gifts. Only when the county magistrate’s spirit-testing disc lit up with its seventh violet pattern did this little clan, which had scraped by growing ginseng and refining pills, realize that the cold jade marrow nourished more than its spirit fields: it also fed the insatiable lust for power growing deep in people’s hearts. Three hundred years later, when the Lin clan’s spirit vessel shattered the Eye of the Returning Ruins Sea, the nine domain lords finally understood the bloodstained family genealogy: beneath every Golden Core cultivator’s name lay three fallen blood relatives.
