Heaven and earth are furnaces, all things are copper, Yin and Yang are charcoal, and creation is work.
In this world called "Blue", everyone seeks the path to immortality, tempers spiritual roots, condenses golden elixirs, and hopes to one day become a flying immortal.
However, Su Mochen, a young man from a small border town, was found to be born with "painted skin spiritual root" during the awakening ceremony. This root cannot absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and instead eats up the essence and blood of one's body. It is known as the most useless root in all eternity. The clan regarded it as ominous, and the world sneered at him as a "painted skin bag", asserting that his path was over and he would not live longer than thirty.
When everyone thought that his life was filled with darkness, Su Mochen discovered through coughing up blood that the real secret of the "Painted Skin Spiritual Root" was not the "Na" spirit, but the "Painting" spirit.
If you use blood as ink to paint mountains, the mountains will hold down the mountains; if you paint water, the rivers will hang upside down.
If you use bones as a brush, if you draw a dragon, the dragon will sing in the sky; if you draw a devil, all ghosts will walk at night.
What he walked was a road that no one had ever walked before.
While the geniuses in the spiritual world were still fighting over a pill or a skill, Su Mochen had already spread out his scrolls and recreated the world within a small space.
"What you are cultivating is the way of heaven, and what you seek is to ascend. And I, with just a pen and an inkstone, can paint this way of heaven into what I want."
This is the story of a loser's rise, but it's more than that. This is a confrontation between pen and sword, and it is also a game between mortals and destiny.
