The Confucian Sage of the Mortal Realm: Beginning with the Bloodfiend Formation

Liang Yuetong begins by breaking the Blood Fiend Formation. He battles evil fiends from beyond the domain and saves a man named Zhang Xiaochuan. The Heavenly Dao takes Zhang Xiaochuan into the Crucible World to cultivate him. Liang Yuetong leads others into the Crucible World, where in every rebirth, he faces Zhang Xiaochuan, who has already become the new Heavenly Dao. Liang Yuetong breaks through five kinds of Crucible Worlds, succeeding time and again. In his madness, he avenges those around him and takes down the enemy who cultivated him: Zhang Xiaochuan, the Heavenly Dao. Zhang Xiaochuan offers to repay Liang Yuetong for saving his life, but Liang Yuetong wants none of it. All he wants is for this Heavenly Dao, who uses all living beings as crucibles and nourishment, to die.
