Before the jade statue in Langhuan Blessed Land, he licked the blood from his blade and grinned. “Northern Darkness Divine Art? It belongs to Cen now.”
Cen Bufan, a lowly servant mocked as a “martial arts blockhead,” is reborn in the Tianlong world on a rainy night. While the heroes of the martial world risk their lives fighting over secret manuals, he uses his memories of the future to get ahead with precision:
He drains the inner power from a traitor of the Wuliang Sword Sect, then uses the Lingbo Microstep to claim Duan Yu’s heavenly fortune.
Disguised as a servant in a chess match, he seizes a century’s worth of Xiaoyao Sect power the instant Wuyazi passes it on.
During the bloody battle at Juxian Manor, he coolly picks up the bloodstained Yijin Jing, with Qiao Feng’s sorrowful figure behind him...
The martial world calls him the “Glutton,” saying he greedily devours every martial art under heaven. They don’t know he has long since outgrown the feuds of the martial world.
When the Vulture Palace becomes a technology workshop, when Beggar’s Sect disciples carry true-energy rifles, and when the Dali Duan clan supplies energy cores for starships...
On the crumbling throne of the Northern Song, he wipes his blade and smiles. “This martial world is too small to contain my path of martial arts.”
A hundred years later, moonbase “Guanghan Palace” gleams with silver light. Cen Bufan stands at the bow of a star raft, with a hundred thousand cultivators of ancient martial arts behind him. Looking back at that blue planet, he flicks a finger, and a chaos dao seal unfolds into a star map.
“From here, we journey into the sea of stars and prove the Dao through martial arts! All of you, follow me... Devour the cosmos!”
