Ji Xinnian spent his childhood cultivating in seclusion with his grandfather deep in the mountains, practicing martial arts and breathing techniques. Seventeen years of hardship went into tempering a single sword. At seventeen, in pursuit of the “intent” his grandfather had spoken of, he was forced to leave the mountains and step into the prosperous yet unfamiliar modern city.
But the world had undergone a tremendous transformation. Humans could now hunt strange beasts in a virtual “Shanhai World” to earn attribute points, strengthen their bodies, and extend their lives! Here, demons from mythology ran rampant, and immortals and gods sat high above the clouds. Ordinary people could climb to the summit only by laying a path with their own blood!
“If this world reveres martial arts, then I’ll use martial arts to uphold the Dao!”
With a solid foundation forged through seventeen years of arduous mountain training, Ji Xinnian swept through the Shanhai World, crushing demons with his fists, slaying divine beasts with his blade, and piercing immortals and gods with his sword! In the real world, he swept through the martial arts community with an invincible presence, defeated every enemy under heaven, fought for his country, and ultimately stood atop the world!
From mountain cowherd to Shanhai’s greatest martial master, this is a passionate journey to prove the Dao through martial arts!
“My fists can shatter mountains and rivers, and shake heaven and earth. In the martial arts of this world, I shall be the pinnacle!”
