Lin Langxuan, a boy from Qinghe Village, failed his talent test. Unable to cultivate for the rest of his life, he could only accept his fate and work the fields.
On a stormy night, cultivators slaughtered the village to seize a secret treasure. His parents died protecting him, and the black stone in his arms suddenly shattered. The remnant soul of a death god, sealed away by the Heavenly Dao for a hundred thousand years, took possession of his body.
"Want revenge? Want to live? Then take my power and withstand Heaven's punishment!"
From that day on, a freak appeared among the Myriad Worlds.
Others seek safety and avoid tribulations when breaking through. He deliberately draws down heavenly lightning as a weapon, growing stronger with every punishment!
At the Body Tempering Realm, he called down lightning to kill a villainous young master. At the Star Gathering Realm, he used Heaven's punishment to ambush a sect's prodigy. At the Star Forging Realm, he endured the Chaos Lightning Tribulation head-on, becoming the only Chaos Body in all of history!
At the Qinglan Sect, he reached the top of the martial tournament as a menial disciple and protected the gentle young lady who had given him a cultivation technique.
In the Tianxuan Secret Realm, he glimpsed the truth behind the apocalypse from a hundred thousand years ago: the so-called cycle of the Heavenly Dao was merely a wager among the gods.
In the Divine Dragon Domain, he rescued a holy maiden of the dragon race, awakened the dragon clan's inheritance, and shattered the domain barrier with a single punch.
At the Star Lord Tower, the Nightmare God of the Hundred Gods' Arena forcibly took him as a disciple. From then on, he had a Heavenly God at his back, one who could erase an entire realm with a wave of his hand!
He fought his way from the mortal realm to the divine realm, only to learn that the apocalyptic calamity was far from over, and rifts were devouring the Myriad Worlds.
Even the Supreme Heavenly Lord of the divine realm admitted that he was the only variable in the final battle, and no one could foresee the future.
Meanwhile, the death god within him was slowly awakening. The past erased by the Heavenly Dao concealed an ultimate secret capable of overturning the divine realm.
The world called him an evil demon. It feared the power of the death god within him and dreaded the world-ending punishments he called down time and again.
But Lin Langxuan simply stood with his sword raised, with the nameless heroes who had died in battle over the last hundred thousand years at his back.
If Heaven wants me dead, I'll defy Heaven.
