Also known as The Way of the Great Dao
"If fate is decreed by the Heavenly Dao, then I will fight it!"
Yun Qingli was born into the top cultivation family, the Yun clan. Gifted with a natural Dao physique and peerless spiritual roots, she was adored from childhood and was every bit the favored child of heaven. But on the day she broke off her engagement to Xiao Tianchen, the young master of the Xiao clan, a sudden revelation struck her sea of consciousness: she was actually a cannon-fodder female supporting character in a story about a destined hero!
In the book, breaking off the engagement earns her the male lead's enmity. Ten years later, Xiao Tianchen gains an incredible opportunity, his cultivation soars, and he returns to wipe out the entire Yun clan. She is nothing more than a speck of dust on the protagonist's path to the summit.
"If fate says I must die, then I'll defy heaven itself!"
After awakening, Yun Qingli still appears to be the aloof young lady of the Yun clan. In secret, however, she becomes a cultivation maniac, working herself harder than the heavens, the lands, and the entire sect. She joins the foremost immortal sect, the Jiuxiao Xuantian Sect, pursues the Dao through the sword, creates her own cultivation techniques, and ascends step by step. From the sect leader to the spirit pets, everyone in the sect is won over by her, and she becomes the brightest star in the entire cultivation world.
Yet as her cultivation advances, she gradually discovers that this world is far more than just something "written in a book." The legacy of the ancient Star Palace, the schemes of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion, the threat of demons from beyond the realm... And the fates of her and Xiao Tianchen are far more twisted and unpredictable than a mere "broken engagement and face-slapping."
"If this world is only a simulation, then I'll be the one to break the game!"
