The so-called way of heaven is just a sleeping ancient outer god; the so-called ascension is actually the beginning of self-sacrifice.
Shen Yanqiu, an outer disciple of the Qingmu Sect, obtained an unnamed fragment of pages from a dusty ancient book. After being stained with blood, a strange star map emerged. From then on, his eyes could see evil shadows, his ears could hear whispers, his cultivation level increased strangely, and his body also underwent unspeakable changes.
The teacher's sect was entrusted with the important task of investigating the missing case in the village at the foot of the mountain, but little did he know that he had become a "poison material" that led to taboos. Runes made of flesh and blood, inhuman tribes lurking deep in the deep pool, sacrificial plots hidden beneath the sanctimony... Ancient terror is quietly awakening.
Following the guidance of the broken page, Shen Yanqiu stepped into the annihilated ancient ruins, met an old friend whose soul was holding a sword, and learned the cruel truth of "the spiritual root is the bait, and the Nascent Soul is the seed". The closer you get to the top of the avenue, the closer you are to the end of self-destruction.
When the projection of the outer gods descends on the fairy mountain, and when the ascension ceremony turns into the slaughterhouse of Shura, should you choose to forget the truth and live in peace, or face the chaos and burn yourself?
This is a sanctimonious and corrupt world of cultivation. Cultivation is pollution, enlightenment is madness. Let's see how a small mortal can carve out his own path to salvation amidst indescribable fear and the abyss of despair.
