He was once the greatest prodigy of the immortal sects, someone all within his clan looked up to.
After a great battle, his adoptive father died, and his qi sea was shattered. He fell from a peerless genius to a useless mortal.
The new sect master treated him well on the surface but secretly allowed others to bully him, gradually pushing him out of the inner circle. Those he once defeated now trample and humiliate him at will.
The day he was exiled to a desolate ridge behind the mountain, all he wanted was to survive.
Then, by a stroke of fate, the sword in his hand became the key to defying fate and changing his destiny, activating an ancient god-slaying formation.
The formation can annihilate all hostility, regardless of anyone’s cultivation. Within it, he is the master. Outside it, he is an ant.
From then on, he plays the coward, bides his time, and lays his plans, using a single formation to kill his way from five square meters to a hundred miles of open sky.
The mortal Shen Buyan, with no cultivation at all, uses one formation to subdue the entire cultivation world!
