On the Nine Heavens Continent, where stars and spiritual ley lines intertwine, all things can cultivate. The strong can tear apart the galaxy, while the weak crawl like ants. The young Ling Chen was a collateral descendant of a third-rate family in Qingyang City. Born with blocked spiritual meridians, he was regarded as a good-for-nothing in cultivation and treated with scorn. By chance, he discovered an ancient, weathered Starstone covered in cracks in the family’s forbidden grounds. Within it lay the long-lost Star Evolution Art, lost for countless ages.
This art does not rely on conventional spiritual meridians. Instead, it draws upon the power of the stars across the heavens to temper the body, and can even deduce the paths of all things and see through illusions. From then on, the name good-for-nothing was utterly cast aside. In desperate straits, he grasped the starry combat arts; amid chaos, he glimpsed the mysteries of the Heavenly Dao; in the wilderness, he took strange beasts as servants; and in the imperial court, he stirred up a storm of change.
From his humble rise in Qingyang City, to stirring up the Eastern Region, and finally reaching the peak of the Nine Heavens, every step Ling Chen took followed the stars’ paths. But as his cultivation deepened, he gradually discovered that hidden behind the cultivation system of the Nine Heavens Continent was a world-shaking secret concerning the extinction of the stars and the survival of all races. The Starstone in his hands was the key to uncovering it all. In the contest for the Great Dao, life and death are of little consequence. See how Ling Chen takes the stars as his guide and forges an era of his own!
