[The Heavenly Dao Falls, the Demonic Calamity Returns. Who Will Rise and Fall? My Heart Alone Shall Decide]
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, across the land of the Nine Provinces, ordinary people could see only the bustling mortal world and the everyday lives of common folk.
But they knew nothing of the world beyond it: sword immortals flying on their swords, qi refiners inhaling the sun and moon, Daoist masters commanding wind and rain, and mighty cultivators who could move mountains and fill seas. This world was known as the "Mystic Sect."
Story Synopsis
Lin Jingzhe, a ten-year-old orphan, was abandoned as a child. His adoptive parents died, he was sold into slavery, and he endured endless abuse.
One stormy night, a purple-gold thunderbolt struck him from above, yet he miraculously survived.
That bolt revealed the shocking secret of his birth: he possessed the legendary Nine Nether Demonic Veins, the last unresolved mystery left behind by the righteous-demonic war a thousand years ago. Even more terrifying, his body concealed a demonic seed left by Xuanming, the supreme demon lord of that era!
After being accepted as a disciple by the Tianshu Academy, Lin Jingzhe thought he had found a home. But the remnants of the demonic path, the "Nether Church," coveted him in secret, while undercurrents swirled within the righteous path. Even the piece of black jade he had worn on his chest since childhood concealed a malicious remnant soul.
Every step brought danger. Every moment was fraught with peril.
When he faced the remnant will of Xuanming in a secret realm, and the truth was peeled back layer by layer, he finally discovered that his birth had been part of a scheme set in motion a thousand years ago.
Was he the one who would break the game, or merely a pawn in it?
