This is an era of declining spiritual energy. The Divine Infant Realm has reached its peak, and the Hedao Realm has become a legend. The Taixu Sect has monopolized the spiritual veins of Shuzhou and Linjiang for three thousand years, and small and medium-sized aristocratic families have either become attached to it or disappeared.
The Lin family is the latter. On the day when the young master of Taixu Sect walked into the marriage banquet, there were no cards left on the Lin family's card table. Lin Zhiyi was sitting in the main hall, preparing to play the last card - herself.
The door was pushed open. A casual cultivator from the Bone Forging Realm walked in, wearing a white-washed coat and carrying an ancient sword box.
No one knows what Guixu Mountain is. But everyone who stands at the top of the world of cultivation has vaguely heard of that name - a mountain that is not on any map, an inheritance that has never been born but secretly determines the direction of the world.
Shen Che is the descendant of Guixu Mountain who waited for hundreds of years to appear. His five masters are the last gatekeepers of the five channels of swordsmanship, deduction, blacksmithing, Zen town, and space. What they taught him wasn't the techniques - it was "why the rules can be broken."
