Chasing Immortality Through the Mortal World

Ye Chen, a village boy carrying a mysterious jade pendant left to him as an heirloom, steps into the treacherous world of cultivation and joins the Xuanyuan Sect. Born with the rarest of rare hidden spirit roots, he tempers his resolve among discarded pills and toughens his body in the earthfire chamber. With grit and good fortune, he fights his way through the brutal outer disciple trials.

But the path to immortality is full of obstacles, and people are hard to read. The jealousy and persecution of aristocratic scions follow him like a shadow, the mysterious Blood God Cult is quietly closing in, and the sect elders' attention carries hidden meaning. Through secret-realm trials and battles to the death, Ye Chen brings forth the jade pendant's mysterious power in moments of desperation, awakening the potential of his hidden spirit roots. With sword in hand, he rises from obscurity and seeks the light in the darkness.

This is a thorny road from the mortal world to the heights of the heavens, a silent cry from an insignificant ant challenging the firmament. Watch as the boy cuts through layers of mystery with the sword in his hand and, amid the surging currents of the immortal path, stays true to himself and carves out his own road to the heavens!
