Heaven-Hunting Saber Lord: My Wife and Child Are My Dao

System + katana + draw slash + iai slash + foresight slash: looking cool is a lifelong pursuit ^_^

At sixteen, Ling Mo falls from a towering cliff during the blood-soaked night his family is wiped out. On the brink of death, a nameless [Martial Arts Mirror] appears in his consciousness. It grants him no divine power, but clearly reflects his path in martial arts, making the complex simple. His lone-wolf training at the foot of the cliff and his life-and-death bond with a spiritual black tiger hone his blade into an edge that cuts through every illusion, and forge his ruthless resolve.

When he returns to the world, bearing a battered sword case, revenge is only the beginning. The legacy of an ancient Blade Sovereign and seven katanas containing the primal forces of heaven and earth emerge one after another, intertwining with his fate: “Golden Chime,” the dawn-bringer; “Wood's Renewal,” which restores spring; “Fire's Refinement,” which scorches the heavens; “Water's Gentleness,” which listens to the tide; “Earth's Anchor,” firm as a mountain; “Thunder's Wrath,” which heralds spring; and “Demon's Guile,” which devours souls. Each blade is a trial, a thread of fate, and a weighty responsibility.

From establishing his foothold in the Northern Wastes as “Blade Hades” to making a name for himself at the Nine Provinces Alliance; from finding understanding and companionship with his four peerless wives, each a master of her own field, to earning the sworn loyalty of seven fierce generals, each with a distinct personality. Ling Mo's blade cuts down not only his enemies and evil demons, but also the clouds of despair shrouding the world. When the sky shatters and demons from beyond the realm surge in like a tide, he will finally understand that the sword case carries not one man's grudges, but the fate of all living beings in this world.

This is the epic tale of a man bearing a blade and a case, who rises from avenger to guardian deity. When the blade is drawn, all things yield; when the case is set down, heaven and earth find peace.
