In the final years of the Great Xia dynasty, human cultivators suffered a crushing defeat and were forced to sign humiliating, unequal treaties with the other races: ceding land, paying resources, and opening their borders wide...
From then on, demons and monsters ran rampant among humanity, treating mortals as food and sacrificial offerings.
Li Yuanxuan transmigrates into the body of a village boy, only to watch helplessly as a demon clan abducts his fiancée from the start.
At the brink of life and death, his System activates, but when he sees the System before him, he is dumbfounded.
The whole world is crawling with demons and monsters, and you give me a martial arts System???
Everyone else uses spells, demonic arts, and ghost techniques, while you give me the Great Strength Vajra Palm, the Lingbo Steps, the Nine Yang Divine Skill...
Fortunately, the System is powerful. As long as he acts chivalrously and upholds justice, he earns Chivalry Points. He can use them not only to exchange for and enhance martial arts, but also to directly weaken or even nullify all supernatural powers!
What is more, Li Yuanxuan discovers that his fiancée has unexpectedly awakened a hidden spiritual root, giving her a tiny chance of becoming the strongest Archmage.
So Li Yuanxuan and his virtuous wife combine martial arts and magic, “upholding justice” and slaying demons as they gather resources and cultivate...
Years later, startling news sweeps across the Tianfeng Continent: Su Qingning, the number one female Archmage of the human race, known as the Fairy of Ten Thousand Spells, is marrying a mere mortal martial artist.
Cultivators everywhere are baffled. How could a martial artist possibly be worthy of an Archmage?
Until, on the wedding day, the Ghost Emperor attacks with a million ghost soldiers. Before Su Qingning can even act, Li Yuanxuan rises to meet them,
One move: the ninth form of the Tathagata Divine Palm, enhanced to its maximum level, Ten Thousand Buddhas Pay Homage. He gravely wounds the Ghost Emperor and drives back a million ghost soldiers!
The world is stunned: so this mortal martial artist is the most terrifying being in all creation!
