Guo Feng is a six-year-old orphan with no spiritual roots, no backing, and no miraculous opportunities. All he has is a backbone of iron and a worthless life. While others cultivate through talent and good fortune, he fights mountain sprites on the sheer cliffs of Black Mountain, tempers his bones with snake blood in poisonous marshes, and faces thousand-year-old seals head-on at the bottom of ancient pools. He cultivates spiritual power, his body, and his mind in parallel, risking death with every step.
He once met An Ru, the little girl named a Saintess of the Xuantian Sect at just five years old. She gave him a piece of warm jade and smiled, saying, "Wait for me to come back." From then on, one climbed upward while the other ventured below, with all of Zhongzhou and countless sects and impassable barriers between them.
No golden finger, no System, no benefactor appearing from the heavens. Just a pair of fists battered to pieces and healed again, and one unchanging principle: Take life and death in stride, and fight anyone who refuses to accept it.
A million-word bloody road of battle. The ruler of ten thousand universes rises from humble beginnings. If no one will save me, I'll save myself.
