Deep in the Great Wilderness, the young Ling Chen awakens the Heaven-Devouring Ancient Vein, dismissed as a “crippled meridian,” at the brink of death. It cannot absorb spiritual energy or cultivate sword arts, but it can devour the very essence of all things: tempering his body with demon blood, replenishing his soul with sacred bones, imprinting immortal scriptures, even chewing up and refining the laws of heaven and earth.
While everyone in this age reveres the orthodox path to immortality, he defies the Nine Heavens with the way of devouring heaven. From prey in a remote corner of the world to a taboo who lays waste to three thousand traditions; from an “aberration” hunted by immortal sects to the “Heaven-Devouring Supreme” who reigns over all through the ages.
He has devoured dragon blood, chewed immortal herbs, and even swallowed the chanting of gods and buddhas filling the sky in a single gulp.
“The so-called Heavenly Dao is nothing but a bland bowl of meat soup. Once I refine this universe, I’ll add a little flavor.”
