Yi Chen, an outer sect disciple of Qingyun Sect, has had his spiritual aptitude tested seven times. His ability to sense spiritual energy: zero.
“His Nine Nether Meridians are incurable.” Those words sentenced him to seven years of misery. He lived in a leaky shack, ate spoiled food, and was ordered around like a dog. But nobody knew that the dark golden light in his lowered eyes grew deeper by the day.
Then, in a hidden compartment of the Scripture Pavilion, he found a black jade slip. Golden runes surged into his sea of consciousness: “The bearer of the Nine Nether Meridians is no waste. They are sealed by the Divine Emperor. Only by breaking the seal and being reborn can they awaken.”
As the Chaos Scripture circulated, it devoured the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, consumed the power of the stars, and refined the origins of all laws! The mortal shackles shattered, and the Nine Celestial Star Chart began to awaken. From the ruins of Starfall City to Tianshu Academy, from the “useless” student of the Chen Class to the foremost of the Nine Celestial Stars, by day he endured like a wolf; by night, he devoured like a demon.
Nine interlocking seals, each one a new realm. Why had the Divine Emperor sealed him? Where had the star chart been scattered? What secret shared origin connected him to the white-robed Tantai Mingyue?
He did not ask where he came from, only where he was headed.
“I will tear apart all nine layers of this seal, one by one. I will make sure that across the Myriad Worlds, no one ever dares call me a waste again!”
