Awakened the Frost Undying Phoenix from the Start

[Not a brainless power fantasy; not an invincible-hero story] [A cautious, slow-burn beginning with plenty of thrills later on] The Frostbound Undying Phoenix, the Nine Heavens Silver Thunder Dragon, the Purple Star Spatial Beast, the Light of Fuxi, the Dreamlike Star King, and the God of the Void. These six peerless essences are nurtured within Yang Yiguang’s Void Ancient Pagoda.

Yang Yiguang was once an unassuming boy living peacefully in a peach blossom grove. But during a life-or-death tribulation in an illusion, he awakened the Frostbound Undying Phoenix, one of the thirty-two peerless essences.

The frostbound phoenix never dies; reborn from the flames, it is eternal.

From then on, the Void Ancient Pagoda acknowledged him as its master. He began cultivating the Frostbound Undying Scripture and journeyed alongside Shuang’er, the Frostbound Undying Phoenix, embarking on a path of cultivation to uncover his origins, track down his biological father, and unravel the secrets of the Myriad Worlds.

The Void Ancient Pagoda is a peerless treasure beyond the reach of even the Myriad Worlds. It has six levels, each sealing a peerless essence, every one powerful enough to suppress a world and overturn a region. Yet Yang Yiguang has only opened the first level, and already his fate has changed dramatically.

In Qingyun City, he conceals his identity and hides his abilities as he joins the Alchemy Pavilion, becoming a first-grade alchemist while still a youth. Outside Blackwood Mountain, he kills Chen Lie and Zhao Lingxiao, then is hunted for three days and nights by the patriarchs of two clans at the Dao Core Realm. At the brink of despair, he activates the Great Thunder Token and enters the Great Thunder Realm.

The Great Thunder Realm is the core secret realm controlled by the Great Thunder Academy.

This is no ordinary trial ground, but a vast sea that operates as a real world. The Inner Sea has markets, cave abodes, spirit boats, and a mission hall. The Outer Sea has sea beasts, ruins, medicinal herb islands, and thunder-tide currents. Deeper still, five great factions stand guard: Sky-Piercer, Heaven-Burner, Mystic Boat, Nether Tide, and Frozen Abyss.
