In the waning age of cultivation, spiritual energy has dried up across the Qingming Domain, and small families are as expendable as weeds.
The Lin family, an ancient clan that once guarded the mountains, has fallen into ruin. Its spiritual veins have run dry, the Wang family is seizing its ancestral lands, and the Qingming Sect is squeezing double the tribute out of them. With more than thirty family members, the entire clan will be wiped out within six months.
Lin Yuan is reborn, carrying a blood feud born from the brutal deaths of his entire family. He awakens the dilapidated ancestral Mountain and Sea Divine Map that everyone despises!
Sealed within the map is an entire ancient primordial secret realm, with endless spirit springs and herds of exotic beasts!
The spirit springs cleanse his marrow, transforming his three mixed, useless roots into an innate Dao body;
Xingxing beasts divine good and ill fortune, black-shelled beasts strengthen grand arrays, and Qingluan gather destiny. Countless mountain-and-sea beasts willingly join the family’s ranks;
While other cultivators fight tooth and nail for pills and beg sects for resources, the Lin family is self-sufficient in its secret realm. The whole clan stands united, without infighting, producing prodigies in droves!
The Wang family’s steward comes to provoke them? A sixth-level Qi Refiner crushes a ninth-level Qi Refiner with a single move!
A late Foundation Establishment enforcer bears down on them? They face him head-on with the Mountain and Sea Seal and a grand array powered by the earth’s spiritual veins!
The ancient war between the Wu and Yao, Zhuanxu’s severing of the bond between gods and humans, and the secret history of humanity’s guardianship are gradually revealed, as a plot laid by human hands behind an ancient seal comes to light.
When the Golden Core and Nascent Soul stages arrive, followed by calamities spanning the heavens, the entire immortal cultivation world finally realizes the truth:
This small family, once on the brink of extinction, holds the orthodox inheritance of the Mountain and Sea tradition, lost by humanity for ten thousand years!
