[Counterattack from the bottom + sect management + group growth + decisive killing + single female protagonist]
On the night when the Qinglan Clan was destroyed, Cheng Yan was wrapping the seventy-sixth corpse in a straw mat.
He is just a corpse collector with no spiritual roots, no teacher, and his name is not even worthy of being included in the roster of disciples.
Until the cracked Patriarch's statue came out with a last word:
"Don't become a disciple, bury me first."
Cheng Yan did as he was told.
The next day, on the barren hill where the ancestor was buried, a service room that had been burned down grew up.
From then on, every time he fulfilled his last wish for a perished sect, a hall and a broken method would reappear on the empty mountain.
But he can't directly practice any of these special skills.
If he wants to become stronger, he must first teach the skills to others.
So, the girl who made the fire turned the fire into a furnace body; the timid man used the corpse to see through the world; the lame carpenter made the entire mountain gate stand upright...
Those who were despised by aristocratic families, driven away by immortal sects, and judged by the world as having no chance to practice, all became disciples of Kongshan.
Many years later, nine immortal sects surrounded the mountain and forced Cheng Yan to hand over the seal of the master.
He carried the black coffin back then, and behind him all the halls opened and the mountains bowed their heads.
"I have only one rule in Kongshan - there are no abandoned disciples in the world."
However, no one knows that every time Kongshan becomes stronger, the leader's seal will eat up a piece of Cheng Yan's memory.
When he actually takes the position of leader, will he still remember why he opened this mountain gate?
