The ordinary mortal Ye Hui bears the Spirit-Fusion Codex and devotes himself to cultivation at the immortal sect Xuanjin, hoping to one day attain the Great Dao. But the world will not leave him in peace. The neighboring sect, Lieyang, has long coveted Xuanjin’s power, and its schemes, both overt and covert, eventually unleash a calamity of epic proportions. Nascent Soul experts descend, blood and fire consume the mountains, and Xuanjin, a sect with thousands of years of history, is wiped out overnight. Its gates become a blood-soaked slaughterhouse and a site of sacrifice.
Caught in a deadly trap, Ye Hui barely survives amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. The path to immortality lies in ruins, and his protectors are all gone. Cast adrift like a rootless duckweed, he wanders among the marketplaces of rogue cultivators, struggling to survive with his meager skills in artifact crafting.
Keeping a low profile among ordinary folk, Ye Hui crafts artifacts and pills, never ceasing his cultivation as he rebuilds his foundation from the ground up. The road ahead is fraught with danger: not only must he face ruthless tribulation cultivators lying in wait, but also unravel the layers of mystery behind his sect’s destruction and confront enemies yet to reveal themselves.
With the broken sword in his hand, Ye Hui will take each step carefully through this brutal world of cultivation. In a realm where the strong make the rules, he will claim immortality and live free!
