Orphaned Su Hao discovers the Heavenly Evolution Art in a ruined temple, setting foot on the path to immortality. Thanks to his astonishing talent with the sword, he earns a place at the Heavenly Sword Sect, only to incur the envy of Cao Xuan, the son of a powerful family. Framed for consorting with demons and having his dantian destroyed, he is cast out of the sect.
On the brink of death, the primordial spirit treasure Nuwa's Tear awakens. It not only restores his meridians and bones, but also opens up an extraordinary path of cultivating alchemy, martial arts, and artifacts. Armed with this treasure, Su Hao joins the Lingyun Sect and rises amid adversity: his alchemy can bring the dead back to life and restore flesh to bone, his artifact-crafting forges divine weapons that shake heaven and earth, and his swordsmanship slays formidable foes across the eight directions.
He befriends the forthright rogue cultivator Liu Yan, the sunny young man Yun Fei, and the wise divine son Lin Yi. He also shares four romances across different planes with the aloof peak master Yun Yun, the gentle healer He Xian'er, the pure goddess Xia Yao, and the mysterious valley master Ye Li. At the Five Sects Grand Tournament, one dazzling sword strike puts him above the prodigies of every clan. During an adventure in a higher plane, he joins Ye Li to break through a crisis and takes command of the laws of space. After a century of tempering his heart in the mortal world, he comprehends the full spectrum of human life and reaches perfect spiritual clarity.
When the demonic tide surges and the planes teeter on the brink of collapse, Su Hao steps forward and joins forces with the powerful across the heavens to form an alliance against the demons. He uses Nuwa's Tear to cleanse the demonic miasma and fights the Heavenly Demon Emperor with the power of his three paths of cultivation, but is ultimately overwhelmed and falls into a rift in the void.
Yet Heaven does not forsake him. Nuwa's Tear protects his fragmentary soul as it enters the cycle of reincarnation, and he is further empowered by the Heavenly Demon Emperor's blood essence. Returning with the memories of his past life, Su Hao breaks through to godhood and ultimately becomes the Supreme Emperor. He gives his body to mend the flaws in the Heavenly Dao, purges the demonic scourge from the cosmos, and reunites with his brothers and beloveds. Together, they protect this immortal cultivation world, weathered by countless trials, and write an epic tale of defying fate and safeguarding all living beings.
Not bad, worth a look
