Within the Lingtian Sect, Li Kongxuan struggled to get by with his four spiritual roots. He could never break through to the fourth level of Qi Refining, and his path to immortality seemed at an end. He had never dared touch the Blood Essence Soul-Concentrating Art passed down by his ancestors. Practicing this demonic art would put him at odds with the righteous path, and though the sect had not explicitly forbidden it, the punishment for being discovered would be severe.
But evil deeds were rife in the world, and the wicked who preyed on the weak and ran rampant gnawed at his heart like a malignant growth. One day, he witnessed a fellow disciple being tortured to death by demonic cultivators, and his anger and resentment erupted like a volcano. Looking at the yellowed copy of the Blood Essence Soul-Concentrating Art in his hands, he gritted his teeth and decided to take the risk.
As the demonic art circulated and his blood essence surged, he miraculously broke through the limits of Qi Refining and entered Foundation Establishment. After that, he used sect missions as cover to venture into dangerous places. With every person he killed, he devoured their blood essence, and his strength rose at a staggering pace. Core Formation, Nascent Soul... He surged forward without pause.
But no secret could stay hidden forever, and his abnormal progress drew the sect's attention. The Enforcement Hall's investigation followed him like a shadow, while various forces watched him hungrily. Li Kongxuan refused to back down, striking back with ruthless methods as he struggled forward in the gap between right and wrong.
See how he uses this ancestral demonic art to break through one obstacle after another, following his hatred of evil to carve out his own path to defy the heavens!
