Others cultivate immortality through spiritual roots and talent. Lin Ji was born without spiritual energy, with no one to rely on.
Alone and destitute from a young age, he struggled to survive. At long last, he joined the Xuanyan Sect, thinking he could seize a sliver of hope on the path to immortality and escape his lowly fate. But after three whole years of practicing harder than anyone else, all he got in return was the contempt and exclusion of his fellow disciples, along with the verdict that he was a "born good-for-nothing."
The sect treated him coldly, the Heavenly Dao was unjust, and everyone believed he was destined to achieve nothing, eventually be expelled from the mountain gate, and spend the rest of his life as an ordinary mortal.
Just as he was trapped in a hopeless dead end, about to be crushed by fate, the black fragment of bone he had carried close to him for sixteen years quietly awakened.
A fragment of ancient bone shattered the ironclad rules of cultivation.
So what if he had no spiritual roots? While the world followed the Way, he would defy the odds and break the deadlock.
From then on, the forsaken child of the barren mountains shed his lowly status, and the silent youth shattered his shackles.
He endured the world's cold stares and suffered through hardships no one knew of.
Watch Lin Ji rise against the heavens with a single fragment of bone, traverse the endless path to immortality, and ultimately subdue the myriad ways of the heavens!
