Her name is Lingxi, a baby girl abandoned by her birth parents in a snowy wilderness.
Fortunately, the True Person Qingwei of the Xuanqing Sect found her and took her in, naming her "Lingxi," meaning the tides rise and fall, but always return to the sea.
From her first babbling words to taking up a sword and seeking the Way, Lingxi gradually reveals a talent that astounds the world: a Chaos Spirit Root, seen only once in ten thousand years. She masters the sword down to the smallest detail and reaches divine heights in alchemy, defying heaven's will with a mortal body.
At sixteen, the truth of her origins is revealed. She descends the mountain to settle her karmic debts, beginning a journey of worldly trials. She travels across the four seas and makes close friends, destroys the Huangsha Stronghold, conquers the Bingsha Sect, eradicates a plague of parasitic worms, and slays demon generals... With every battle, her name resounds throughout the cultivation world.
