A Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Han the Demon Is My Guide

Zhao Nan, a boy from a mountain village, happens upon a mysterious jade pendant and embarks on the path of cultivation under the guidance of Old Demon Han. Starting out as a menial disciple in a small sect, he struggles to survive one dangerous situation after another, relying on his cautious nature and the pendant's mysterious power. He practices alchemy and talisman-making, meets several confidantes, and makes enemies among demonic cultivators. After countless secret-realm expeditions and sect wars, his cultivation rises step by step from Qi Refining to the Mahayana stage. As he grows stronger, he discovers that he has been drawn into a cataclysm involving secrets from antiquity. Only by breaking through his limits can he find a sliver of hope and, at last, embark on the path to ascension.
