Chen Jianchuan inherits the Voidlight Lantern, the Voidlight Spirit-Guiding Art, and a fragmentary pocket realm left behind by the ancient cultivator Immortal Yu Jin on Yunmeng Mountain. Cultivation is no myth: it is humanity using spiritual energy to ascend to a higher level of life. And ascension is not entering the Heavenly Court, but opening the barriers between dimensions and entering the higher-dimensional civilization that the ancients called the Immortal Realm.
But the higher-dimensional realms are not all inhabited by immortals. A civilization known as the Spirit Shepherds has long treated lower-dimensional worlds as pastures for harvesting spiritual energy and the source of life. Ancient cultivators once went to war with them, ultimately sealing the path to ascension. Thus, history was buried in legend.
Chen Jianchuan’s goal is not merely to become an immortal, but to give humanity a path to ascension that cannot be harvested or monopolized.
