A hundred-year-old Celestial Master awakens in the body of a starving boy, then opens a path to heaven for the lowly in the apocalypse.
In an age of spiritual decline, the last old Celestial Master of Mount Longhu passed on his title and set off on a journey. His soul was scattered in a storm at sea. When he opened his eyes again, he had become an orphan from another world who had starved to death in a ruined temple.
This world, known as Xuanhuang, was experiencing a spiritual qi revival that came once every ten thousand years. Demonic beasts awakened, plants became spirits, and ancient ruins reappeared in the mortal realm. Only humanity struggled to keep up with the evolutionary tide, reduced to prey.
“So be it.”
Inside the starving boy, the soul of a hundred-year-old Celestial Master awoke.
“In my previous life, I failed to protect a fading tradition. In this life...” He looked at a world consumed by the flames of war and brushed the dust from his robes.
“This old man will open a path to heaven once more for all living beings.”
“I will open a path to heaven for the lowly; at its end, all living beings shall be seen.”
