The world is divided into five layers, and each era lasts 360,000 years. The current age is nearing the end of the Final Ancient Era, and the Heavenly Dao is about to launch another “Dark Reckoning.”
Ye Cangsheng, a boy with a useless spiritual root from Qingyang Town, was judged by the spirit-testing stone three years ago to have “naturally blocked spiritual roots.” He has endured scorn and mockery ever since.
Then, one night, the fragments of Cangming within him awakened for the first time, and an ancient voice rang out: “Ten thousand kalpas of reincarnation… undying… the time to awaken… has come…”
Only then did he learn that he carried the legacy of the Cangming Emperor, who had lived in the previous era. He would become the eighth inheritor, setting out on a path that none of the seven before him had managed to complete.
Fist intent, the Bone-Tempering Cauldron, a damaged formation, forbidden arts, protective formations, and a half-formed Dao principle… Seven inheritances and seven tangled threads of fate await him.
From the Mortal Realm to the Spirit Ruins Realm, from the Starsea Realm to the Ninefold Netherworld… With power at the pinnacle, he will slay enemies above his level, uncover the mystery of his origins, and ultimately face the Heavenly Dao to save an era on the brink of ending.
Protecting others is his eternal conviction. Defying heaven is his only path.
