Bearing a blood feud, he rises from the mire of the mortal world. With a pocket dimension in one hand and mastery of the four arts in the other, he seeks the Dao amid annihilation and ultimately becomes the supreme Dao Ancestor!
After disaster strikes the Nanli Kingdom and his entire family perishes, Ling Mo flees for his life, carrying a deep-seated grudge. In his darkest hour, an ancient stele opens the door to his fortune: the Sumeru Mustard Seed. This mysterious, evolving space is initially no more than a hundred zhang of barren land, a dry well, and a time difference ten times faster than the outside world. Yet it becomes his only means of survival in dire straits, and the astonishing foundation for his future path!
In this perilous world of scarce spiritual energy and dwindling resources, Ling Mo understands that painstaking cultivation alone is far from enough. Pills, artifacts, formations, and talismans: the four arts of cultivation are the sharpest weapons in his hands! From blasting the furnace to produce his first inferior fasting pill, to personally repairing an ancient grand formation; from melting iron and tempering bone to forge a crude dagger, to crafting a supreme Dao artifact that stirs the laws of heaven and earth. In the space's tenfold time, he hones his skills relentlessly, paving his way to the heavens with failure and sweat.
Every step is fraught with danger; survive in secret realms. Stealing serpent's milk from a snake's lair, seeking pills in an ancient tomb, comprehending the Dao in a sword mound, battling demons in a cold pool... Countless carefully designed secret realms brim with peril. Each is both a deadly trap and an opportunity to advance. With wit and courage, he seizes opportunities amid danger, nourishing the mustard-seed space and driving its evolution.
His companions include Xu Qing, the mortal hunter whose loyalty runs deep; Qinglin, the young eagle who braves tribulation lightning and evolves into a Wind-Splitting Dark Eagle; Luo Qingqiu, the genius alchemist who stands by him with heartfelt devotion; and Xiao Luoyue, the valiant Empress of Ningwu, whose bond with him is forged through trials... His ties to the mortal world are never severed. Instead, they become the strength that helps him resist inner demons on his path and supports him as he climbs to even greater heights.
