There is an old locust tree with a crooked neck in the back mountain. Shen Mo sat on it for three years before it finally said, "Boy, do you want to ascend, or do you want to wait to die?"
There is an ancient ferocious beast at the bottom of the mountain, which will be broken after three months.
The old tree said: "My name is Yun Wan, and I am your mother."
Only then did Shen Mo find out that he was a descendant of the Sword Immortal and his bloodline had been sealed for twenty-five years.
Only then did he realize that his mother had been watching him being bullied and laughed at, but she couldn't recognize her.
Only then did he realize that when the ferocious beast breaks its seal, he will be the first to die.
Three months, from the third level of Qi training to sealing the ferocious beast.
Not for the world, just to protect the person who has been waiting for twenty-five years.

Struggles at the bottom, competition for resources, sect conspiracies, and demonic covetousness.
Being a cultivator is not only fun, but also comes with costs and sacrifices.
