The Ye family was once a prominent local clan, but in a single night, it was massacred by a coalition of unknown forces. Every loyal member of the family perished, and only the young master, Ye Xiaotian, managed to escape.
Burdened by a blood feud, he fled all the way to the perilous reaches of Kunlun. On the brink of death, he encountered a reclusive master. Impressed by Ye Xiaotian’s exceptional natural talents and unyielding will, the old man took him on as his personal disciple.
After three years of grueling cultivation, Ye Xiaotian mastered an ancient cultivation technique, shed his mortal form, and reached the pinnacle of power. Before he left the mountain, his master told him that he had once taken seven other disciples, all now leading figures in various fields of the modern cultivation world. If trouble arose, Ye Xiaotian could turn to his senior brothers and sisters for help.
Armed with peerless cultivation, Ye Xiaotian returns to the city. The modern martial world is no longer an ordinary place: ancient cultivation clans hide among the common folk, supernatural organizations plot in the shadows, and the righteous and demonic factions are locked in endless conflict.
As he investigates the mastermind behind the destruction of the Ye family, he advances cautiously and takes ruthless revenge on his enemies. At the same time, he ventures through the modern cultivation world, befriends fellow cultivators, puts petty villains in their place, and sweeps aside all opposition with seemingly cheat-like powers.
With the seven outstanding disciples of his master’s sect backing him and his beloved confidantes by his side through life and death, Ye Xiaotian carves out a legendary path of his own amid flashing blades and clashing spells.
