Three hundred years after the spiritual qi revival, martial prowess decides life and death, while talent determines one's standing.
Su Xuan, a poor young man born with an inferior mortal bone, has been condemned to a lifetime with no hope of reaching the Blood and Qi realm.
No connections, no resources, no talent. He suffers abuse, endures repeated betrayals, and comes close to death again and again.
While others awaken their powers overnight and sweep all before them, he must trudge through the mire, leaving a trail of blood with every step.
No invincible System, no instant max-level power, no fortune from the heavens.
Only a nameless fragment of bone and an undying heart.
If the great clans oppress me, I'll shatter their power with my bones!
If the prodigies mock me, I'll prove my Dao through battle!
If the Heavenly Dao cuts off my path, I'll forge an everlasting road to heaven with my mortal bones!
In this life, even a mortal bone can become an emperor, and even the poor can reach the heavens!
