Lu Li, a young man from Blue Star, wakes up in Shiqiao Town outside Luoyang, where he has become the lowest-ranking courier at an escort agency.
This martial world has no timeline. Shaolin, Wudang, the Ming Cult, and the Sun Moon Holy Cult all exist in the same era; Qiao Feng, Guo Jing, Yang Guo, Zhang Wuji, and Linghu Chong walk the same streets. And every advanced martial art in the realm is recorded, sealed away, and distributed by family status through the "World Arsenal." Without a master, a letter of recommendation, or connections, a person can spend their whole life practicing nothing but the rudimentary common manual.
He can't find a master. To qualify as an Arsenal clerk, he'd have to serve for ten years, then swear never to enter the martial world. And if he risked his life for a chance, he couldn't even complete a single escort run.
With all three paths blocked, he finally thinks of those places where no one stands guard, no one keeps records, and anyone who arrives can take what's there. Beneath a cliff in Mount Wuliang lies a stone cave. Before a jade statue, Beiming Divine Skill and Lingbo Subtle Steps are carved into the wall: the easiest-to-access peerless opportunity in the whole realm. He takes them.
The Martial Fortune Register he carries with him can sense opportunities, record martial arts, and merge them. While others spend thirty years mastering one peerless art, he can fuse three into a fourth in a single night.
He has no sect, no status, and no one assigning him tasks.
He simply wants to carve out a path of his own.
The creativity of this book is okay, and the overall plot feels relatively compact. It's just that it's too short now. I'm looking forward to it.
The idea is novel and worth a look
