Su Wan, once the manager of a top-tier star, accidentally transmigrates to the world of cultivation and becomes a peasant girl on the brink of starvation.
She has no spiritual roots and cannot cultivate, but unexpectedly awakens the “Authority of Apotheosis.”
If she can make someone with hidden potential truly be recognized as a “god” by the world, she can gain the power of faith.
So Su Wan takes in a boy who cannot speak or cultivate and was abandoned as an ill omen.
She crafts his image, builds his reputation, arranges his stage, and creates divine miracles.
She convinces the villagers he is a Sword Immortal, the sects that he is a genius, and the entire cultivation world that he was born to stand atop the altar of the gods.
But later, the boy really does cleave a mountain in two with a single strike.
And he really does see through every one of her scripts.
He holds his sword before her and asks in a low voice:
“Su Wan, did you raise me up as a god because I deserved it, or because you needed a god who would obey you?”
For the first time, Su Wan realizes that the person she personally raised to the altar of the gods wants nothing more than to repay her.
He wants to drag her down with him.
