Sun Sheng, a menial worker tending medicinal fields at Qingyun Sect, was thrown into the Ten Thousand Poisons Pit at seventeen. Everyone thought he was dead. But among the piles of bones, he found the Taixu Origin-Returning Tower, activated the hidden meridians within his “useless spirit root,” and awakened the Origin-Returning Physique.
[Resource Conversion] Scrap iron becomes refined steel, ten-year-old spirit herbs become ten-thousand-year-old kings of medicine, and fragments of manuals fuse into complete cultivation arts. Ten thousandfold critical boosts. Unlimited resources.
[Hidden Meridians Awaken] He is no good-for-nothing. He is the sole descendant of the Taixu Dao Ancestor left in the mortal realm.
[Cultivating Nine Paths] Artifact cultivation, sword cultivation, alchemy, talismans, formations, body cultivation, soul cultivation, demonic cultivation, and monster cultivation. He crushes all opposition at every turn.
[Decisive and Ruthless] He leaves no enemies alive, and repays his benefactors with his life.
[Bonds of the Heart] Before dying, his sworn brother Qin Mo says, “In my next life, I'll grow Qingyang grass for you again.” Before the old servant Qiu Bozhou blows himself up, he says, “This old servant won't live to hear you call me Uncle Bozhou.” His confidante Bai Ran says, “When I get there too, let's have a drink together.”
[United Dao Companions] Shen Qinghan goes from being a host for a demonic seed to possessing a Purple-Gold Demon Physique. The two go from dual cultivation of yin and yang to ruling the Origin-Returning Realm together. She says, “My Dao is a flower blooming in the darkness.” He replies, “Then I'll be that ray of light.”
[Realm Progression] Mortal → Qi Refining → Foundation Establishment → Golden Core → Nascent Soul → Deity Transformation → Great Ascension → Knocking on the Immortal Gate → Subtle Insight → Commanding the Dao → Dao Seed → Uniting with the Dao → Slaying Dao Ancestors → Eternal Guardian. He overwhelms those at the same level in every realm, and every breakthrough comes with a ten-thousandfold stockpile of resources.
“My whole life, I went from a menial worker in the medicinal fields to the summit of the heavens. I had three things to thank for it: my hidden meridians, the Origin-Returning Tower, and a brother named Qin Mo.”
He is the one Taixu has waited thirty thousand years for. He cannot let Taixu's wait be in vain.
