On the desolate frontier of the Wild Heaven Domain, where the laws have crumbled and the strong prey on the weak, a silent, stone-faced boy named Wu Han struggles to survive. With no parents, he was raised by the wilderness itself. His world is ruled by the mighty Tianhai Empire, which divides its territory into five domains. Each is guarded by nine-rank wardens who suppress any force that might threaten the empire’s order.
A sudden calamity brought by an immortal shattered Wu Han’s numb, familiar world. The empire’s Second Prince, who is also the Holy Son of the Tianhai Sect, the foremost sect in the land, treats all living beings as insects in pursuit of his ambitions. With a wave of his hand, he annihilates the entire town where Wu Han lives. The bloody vendetta is burned into the boy’s heart, setting this solitary youth on a path of revenge strewn with thorns.
His enemy is an imperial prince of overwhelming influence, a sect prodigy at the peak of the sixth rank. Behind him stands an ambitious emperor, a ninth-rank powerhouse at the pinnacle of his realm, who seeks to unite the strength of all five domains, break through the legendary tenth rank, and rule the entire world.
The path of revenge is also a journey. Rising from the chaos of the Wild Heaven Domain, crossing the Senluo Domain, where countless forms of life converge, setting foot in the Ashen Earth Domain, where lava and oblivion coexist, and venturing deep into the Nether Tribulation Domain, home to the dark underworld and reincarnation, Wu Han presses on until he faces the heart of the empire in the Tianhai Domain. He must not only fight powerful enemies and the domain wardens who are everywhere, but also uncover the empire’s shocking scheme to use “flesh-and-blood sacrifices” and “faith power” to break through the tenth rank.
One man, one blade, defying the laws of the land with martial might, his chill reaching across the heavens. Can he, with nothing but a mortal body, shake the empire to its foundations and carve a bloody path to the heavens for himself in a world bound by the “Laws of the Wild Heaven,” finally avenging his dead?
