Defying Heaven on the Path to Immortality: The System Helps Me Conquer the World

Ling Yu, a menial disciple of the Qingyuan Sect, has an unimpressive three-spirit-root aptitude. He struggles to survive amid scarce resources and bullying from his fellow disciples. On his sixteenth birthday, at the brink of despair, he awakens the “Path to Immortality” sign-in System and gains Fangcun Mountain, a cultivation space where time can be accelerated.

From then on, he uses this little realm to grow spirit herbs, raise immortal beasts, study pills and talismans, and cultivate forbidden formations, building up his resources through the most diligent means. But the cultivation world is ruled by the law of the jungle, where killing for treasure is as commonplace as drinking water. Ling Yu dances on the edge of the blade and comprehends the sword amid life-and-death trials. He meets Murong Xue, a cool and distant sword cultivator, and they grow close through hardship, staying together on the path to the Great Dao.

From an insignificant sect disciple to a name renowned throughout the Northern Region, from a Core Formation Sword Immortal to a master of the void, his journey is one of bloody struggles for resources, merciless battles over the Great Dao, and sharing life and death with the one he loves. When he finally calms the calamities of the myriad heavens with his sword and reaches the summit, he looks back upon a blood-soaked path to immortality, where all living beings suffer.

And so he swings his sword at the old order, using supreme divine powers to establish a relatively fair new heaven for this vast cultivation world.

My Dao shall be the new Heavenly Dao.
