Introduction to The True Lord of the Mystic Firmament
Eighteen-year-old Lu Xuanqiong has spent ten years cultivating at Qingming Temple, deep in the Kunlun foothills, unaware that he possesses an ancient Primordial Dao Body. When he finally breaks through the Qi Refining stage, he triggers a forbidden formation sealed away for three hundred years, inherits the ancient sword cultivator’s Mixed Origin Sword Canon, and bonds with the Qingming Sword. From then on, he sets out on a path of cultivation marked by fate.
Seeking answers about his past, he descends from the mountains and enters the world, hiding in the city as a student at Jinling University. He faces pursuit by the Black Lotus Cult, an invasion by an overseas gene-modified army, the machinations of ancient inner demons, and even the apocalypse brought by extraterrestrial demons. From secluded mountain temples to covert urban battles, from the Ghost Market of the Nine Hells to fragments of the primordial world, every step is fraught with danger and every place holds opportunity.
With the Qingming Sword in hand and the Primordial Dao within him, he breaks through every crisis with ruthless resolve. He is neither sanctimonious nor hypocritical, and always repays kindness and vengeance alike. From Foundation Establishment to Golden Core, from Nascent Soul to Spirit Transformation, he ultimately confronts the will of Heaven itself. Rather than submit, he chooses to reshape the rules and forge a Dao of Heaven that embraces human feeling, becoming the True Lord of the Primordial Origin.
