On the vast mainland, countless peoples stand side by side, and innumerable schools of cultivation pursue the ultimate dream: breaking through to ascend. But ever since the ancient War of the Shattered Heavens, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has grown thin, and the road to ascension has been severed. Countless prodigies are trapped in the mortal realm and meet their ends in despair.
Young Lin Yue is born into a declining clan in a remote border town. With his spiritual meridians blocked from birth, he is dismissed as a good-for-nothing and treated with contempt. By chance, he discovers a fragment of an ancient jade slip in the clan’s forbidden grounds. It turns out to be a remnant of the Myriad Forms Dao Scripture, left behind by an ancient ascendant.
From that moment on, Lin Yue sets out to defy fate and change his destiny. Using the fragment as his foundation, he breaks the shackles of his spiritual meridians and grasps the true meaning of the Myriad Forms in the midst of desperation, bringing countless arts together within himself. He braves perilous lands, battles prodigies, and foils conspiracies, journeying from a remote border town to the heart of the mainland. There, he uncovers the secrets of the War of the Shattered Heavens and discovers that the supposed severing of the road to ascension is in fact a shocking deception spanning countless ages.
When the truth comes to light, the countless peoples of the heavens seek to seize his scripture. Ancient clans, demons from beyond the borders, and even the exalted “false gods” all stand in his way. With a three-foot sword in hand and the honor of his clan on his shoulders, Lin Yue holds fast to the belief that “my fate is mine to decide, not Heaven’s.” He shatters the heavens, becomes a peerless Dao Lord, and reopens the gates of ascension, allowing the vast mainland to bask once more in the glory of the immortal path.
