Chaos Returns to Its Origin: The Rise of the Lin Family

The Lin family, descendants of a Dao Ancestor, settled in Qingwu Valley. With their bloodline grown thin, they became a forsaken clan on the frontier. Their spirit mine was seized, their clan leader died in battle, and even Qi-Gathering Pills had to be earned through hunting.

Lin Che, a branch-family disciple, was dismissed as a good-for-nothing at the third layer of Qi Refining. When the Chiyan clan drove him to the brink of death, his blood awakened the inscription on the forbidden grounds’ Returning-Origin Stele. Amid whispers of “Chaos gives birth to life and death; primordial energy returns to its source,” pale golden chaotic primordial energy gathered in his palm. He comprehended the “Art of Chaotic Returning to the Origin,” passed down by his ancestor, the Xuanhun Dao Ancestor. It could cleanse demonic corruption and set the primordial energy of heaven and earth back on its proper course.

On one side, the Chiyan clan closes in with mutated flame blades. On the other, the Tianyan Sect and Fentian Palace conspire with demons to seize primordial energy, plunging the world into a great decline as black miasma spreads and spirit veins wither.

The honest, sturdy Shidun shields him with a black-iron shield, while a clever little black dog that has awakened its intelligence sniffs out demonic energy and warns him of danger. Armed with the art of returning to the origin, Lin Che rises from Qingwu Valley. He will reclaim the spirit mine and avenge the clan leader, decipher the stele’s inscription and restore the Lin family, then defy the tide of decline and protect the world’s cycles until balance is restored.

When a good-for-nothing wields the power of chaos, can a golden light on the frontier burn away the demons’ shadow? “If the world loses its balance, I’ll use the Art of Returning to the Origin to forge its cycle anew!”
