The Great Zhou was founded on martial might and has stood for a thousand years. But now the court is weak. Martial sects and powerful clans stir within its borders, while the Demon Kingdom of the Western Desert and the wolf cavalry of the Northern Hu watch hungrily from beyond them.
Martial arts and resources are concentrated at the top. To those at the bottom, life is worthless, as fragile as grass.
Li Xiao, an orphan of a fallen soldier, is willing to sell himself to the Qingshan Medicine Shop and become the lowest of apprentices in exchange for even the slimmest chance to grow stronger.
Watch Li Xiao start with a low-grade Black Tiger Fist, devouring resources, consuming blood and qi, and eating demon cores!
He endures humiliation and bides his time, waiting for the day he can unleash his power.
Freed from his indenture, he joins the army and sweeps across the battlefield, becoming a legendary god of war.
Once a despised medicine-shop slave, he relies on the Taotie Mark to climb step by step to the pinnacle of martial cultivation!
In a chaotic age, martial cultivation is more than power: it is the only faith that can ensure survival.
The one who opens new paths in martial cultivation and protects peace in the mortal world is known as the Martial Saint.
