"With the sword as my bones and the slaughter of demons as my vow, one day I will bury every demon beneath heaven and earth beneath my blade!"
One hundred thousand years ago, the first Sword God sacrificed himself to suppress the Demon Ancestor in the Sword-Burial Mountains. His bones became a monument, and his sword energy flowed like a river. Now the demonic tide rises again, undercurrents stir within the sects of the Immortal Realm, and the foretold calamity quietly descends as a crack appears in the Heavenly Secrets Sword Stele.
The young Ye Xuanming carries the blood feud of his village's slaughter, unaware that sealed within him is the Demon-Slaying Sword Soul, feared even by the demon race. When he takes up the broken Nine Hells Sin-Slaying Sword and embarks on the path of cultivation, fate has already dragged him into a game spanning three thousand years.
