The Immortal Path Beneath the Bright Moon

The truth about the moon: it isn't an altar, but a “prison.” Sealed inside it is a terrifying being that descended upon Earth in ancient times and nearly wiped out all life: the “Star Devourer.” The seal is at its weakest every full moon. “Spiritual energy” isn't a gift; it's the life essence leaking from the imprisoned Star Devourer. It benefits life on Earth, but like a drug, it subtly warps cultivators' minds, making them volatile and bloodthirsty. This is the true reason the cultivation civilization vanished: in the end, the ancient cultivators all went mad from spiritual energy's corruption and destroyed themselves. Lin Mo was no ordinary person. His parents were the last members of an ancient guardian clan, and they devoted their lives to researching how to “purify spiritual energy” and reinforce the seal once and for all. But their research threatened the interests of two extremist factions, and both were killed in an “accident.” All they left Lin Mo was a core heirloom capable of purifying spiritual energy: the Pure Moon Glazed Jade Pendant.
