Rebellious Sword God

Across three thousand cultivation realms, the world stretches without end. Countless domains stand side by side, and myriad races vie for supremacy.

The foundation of cultivation lies in one's spiritual root. Spiritual roots are divided into nine grades. Grades one through three are mortal roots, with mediocre talent; even after a century of cultivation, reaching the Golden Core stage is difficult. Grades four through six are spiritual roots, allowing one to join a great sect and offering hope of reaching the Nascent Soul stage. Grades seven and eight are heavenly roots, one in ten thousand, the pillars of a sect's future, with the Nascent Soul stage within reach and the Divine Transformation stage a possibility. Grade nine is the divine root, unique across the ages, naturally attuned to the Great Dao. With a thought, one can shatter mountains and rivers; with a mere gesture, one can shake the heavens.

Lin Chen!

A former outer disciple of the Qingyun Sect, he possesses a useless spiritual root and is treated as a good-for-nothing by the sect, enduring endless bullying. Then, by chance, he fuses with the spirit of a Chaos Sword Artifact and defies fate.
