From Good-for-Nothing to Guardian of the Mortal World

The Spirit Veins of the Myriad Worlds: A Guardian’s Torch

Lin Chen, an ordinary cultivator from Jiangcheng, unexpectedly awakens the legacy of the Wood Spirit Sage Lord and is drawn into a battle to protect the spirit veins, one that spans the realms of humans, gods, and demons, and even reaches the Myriad Worlds. From the crisis of blood gu in Miao territory and the sealing of the demon god in Kunlun Ruins, to the invasion of the Heaven-Eroding Clan and the imbalance of the Voidless Domain, he stands alongside Su Qingyue, who wields the evil-slaying sword; Shen Qing, skilled in spirit-plant cultivation and medicine; and the honest, loyal Chen Pangzi. With the aid of ancient divine artifacts such as the Dao-Inquiring Hairpin and the Reincarnation Disc, they unravel the Nether Valley’s schemes, shatter the Heaven-Defying Ones’ Saint-Slaying Formation, and forge an alliance of the three realms with Jin Yu of the God Clan and the Tu Shan clan leader of the Demon Clan to fight threats from beyond the realms.

As the secrets of the Mirror Realm reveal the origins of the spirit veins and a newly born spirit vein awakens in the Nameless Realm, Lin Chen gradually realizes that protecting the spirit veins has never been one person’s responsibility. It is a mission passed down through the generations. From protecting Jiangcheng’s spirit-vein nexus at the beginning to eventually becoming the guardian who safeguards the balance of the spirit veins across the Myriad Worlds, he witnesses division and alliance, endures sacrifice and growth, and passes the torch of protection to countless young heirs.

This is an epic about faith and coexistence: spirit veins form bridges connecting the Myriad Worlds, while faith is a flame that lights the everlasting path of guardianship. As Lin Chen and his companions become legends, new guardians have already embarked on their journey, for as long as the spirit veins endure, the torch will never go out.
