Lin Yuntian, the sole heir to the declining Lin family of a small town, is burdened with enormous debts and has no future. In his darkest hour, a page from a ruined ancient text falls into his hands. It awakens the dormant bloodline of an ancient war god within him and reveals the shocking secret of his ancestors' cultivation clan!
This ancient text is extraordinary and contains everything: ancient divine arts, heaven-defying techniques, alchemy, artifact forging, talismans, formations, appraisal... even lost knowledge from the distant past! With his exceptional comprehension, Lin Yuntian quickly masters the text's power and transforms from a good-for-nothing everyone can bully into a mighty hero who can turn the tide.
He uses caution and patience as his shield, and decisive ruthlessness as his sword, overcoming adversity, crushing bullies, and resisting the sects' pursuit. From a remote town to the vast cultivation world and then to higher planes, he rises against all odds, making steadfast allies while facing greedy, envious, and powerful enemies.
As he seeks the truth about his origins, awakens the true might of his bloodline, and reforges his companion divine weapon, the Heaven-Slaying Sword, Lin Yuntian becomes unstoppable. He will sweep aside every powerful foe, rise above the gods, and ultimately shoulder the responsibility of protecting the planes. Yet an ultimate threat lies in wait, hidden in the void...
