The Lingxu Clan’s Path to Immortality

Deep in the cloud-shrouded reaches of the Lingxiao Mountains on the Canglan Realm, the Lingxu Clan has guarded its mountain for a thousand years with the Lingxu Sword Art. The clan's "Lingxu Ancient Tomb" conceals an innate Geng Metal spirit vein and ancient inheritance. Its disciples can wield the "Clear Void Sword Intent" to turn clouds and mist into swords, and use the "Heaven-Burning Art" to command flames and incinerate demons. Yet beneath the immortal sect's polished surface, dark currents run deep: the legitimate daughter Wanqing and the concubine-born Mochen are ensnared in a feud between branches by an old romance from a secret realm; the collateral-line Mingyuan holds a Spirit-Devouring Pearl and knows the bloody truth behind the main branch's slaughter of the collateral line. The enemy, Demon Venerable Chonglou, possesses a host through a heart-demon seed and is reborn. Joined by the clan's traitor Shouyi, he covets the tomb's treasures and uses Chu Yanran, the young lady of the Chu family, as bait to infiltrate the clan. To protect her niece Ruoxue, Elder Xueyi sacrifices her Divine Transformation cultivation, unaware that Ruoxue's spirit pet has already been implanted with a demon seed. In his secret chamber, Clan Head Qingyu keeps a portrait of a demonic woman. Bonds from a thousand years ago intertwine with present-day power struggles. When upheaval at the "Cloud Gate" causes the spirit vein to wither, the Lingxu disciples must cut through the fog with their bloodline as their guide, caught between the bonds of family and the battle between good and evil, and forge a new path for the clan to survive through coexistence.
