The Great Beginning of the Way

Lin Yan, a young man from the frontier, bears a mixed Five Elements Spiritual Root and is widely considered a good-for-nothing in the cultivation world. But when his family heirloom, a broken jade pendant, awakens the Primordial Dao Source, he gains the ability to purify spiritual energy and deduce cultivation techniques, while uncovering secrets of the ancient immortal realm. Starting out as a menial disciple of the Qingmu Sect, he braves the sect's tumult, battles the strongest in the provinces, explores the mysteries of Zhongzhou, and crosses realms to fight Chaos. Defying the heavens despite his mortal roots, he rises step by step through crisis, unveils the ultimate secret of the Primordial Dao Source, and eventually attains the Dao and becomes an Ancestor, ascending to the immortal realm alongside his closest friends. See how he turns the tides.
