Synopsis

[Anti-cliché fantasy] [Genius protagonist] [Lighthearted and funny] [MAX sword talent] [Unexpectedly passionate] [The violent aesthetic of a giant hammer]

Li Sheng, nicknamed Iron Bull, is an orphan raised by a blacksmith in a small mountain village. His lifelong dream is to swing the biggest, heaviest hammer in the world.

By a stroke of luck, he saves a disciple of the Sword Sect and is taken into the sect, renowned throughout the world for its sword cultivators.

His talent is tested, and the results astound the ages: he was born with a perfectly clear sword heart, a sword cultivator's sacred body unseen in ten thousand ages!

The entire sect is shaken. The sect master is overjoyed, and countless elders compete to take him as a disciple.

Yet when faced with the divine swords and secret manuals countless people dream of, Li Sheng looks disgusted. "This stuff is so light and flimsy, it's for sissies! I like hammers. One swing and it's all over!"

And so, the Sword Sect's most spectacular sight is born:

A man hailed as the future leader of the sword path, yet carrying an 800-jin iron hammer every day and using supreme sword principles to figure out how to swing it in a wider arc and hit more accurately.

Sect Master: "You unworthy disciple! You're using my Supreme Taiji Sword Canon to practice hammer techniques?!"

Elder: "He... he's actually using a hammer to perform sword techniques! He's disgraced our entire Sword Sect!"

From then on, the Sword Sect's most dazzling young talent sweeps through the greatest prodigies with his giant hammer. His hammer skills reach the divine, and his raw strength breaks through every technique.

When thousands upon thousands of enemies attack and everyone thinks the Sword Sect is doomed, Li Sheng swings his giant hammer once, sending sword energy surging thirty thousand miles.

He grins. "Who says a sword cultivator has to use a sword?"
