    At the northernmost edge of the ancient continent, in the small border kingdom of Bei Qin, lies the Qinling Mountains, stretching for thousands of miles. The Bei Xuan Sect, the premier martial arts sect of Bei Qin, stands atop the towering Zhongnan Mountain. Two miles south of the Bei Xuan Sect's council hall, on the shores of Xuanming Lake, in the pitch-black night, several men in black forcefully threw a bundle bound like a rice dumpling into the lake. One of the leading men in black snarled, "You so-called prodigy young sect leader! Even if you're the number one young talent in Bei Qin, so what? You're ignorant of the times, and without your backing, you still act recklessly. You've offended the Grand Elder, and now you're reaping what you sow. Wait to drown!" Dugu Feng slowly opened his eyes. He saw that the surrounding light was dim, and he found himself in pale yellow lake water, his hands and feet bound with fine hemp ropes, his body covered in wounds, and his dantian severely injured. In an instant, Dugu Feng felt the breath of death closing in, as if his soul would be scattered at any moment. Dugu Feng's face suddenly contorted in a rage, and he roared, "No!" Before he could finish speaking, the lake water forced his mouth shut. A drop of blood spilled from his mouth, sliding down onto a dark bead he wore around his neck. The next moment, a green light suddenly shone from the bead, quickly enveloping Dugu Feng and vanishing in an instant. Dugu Feng's vision went black, and he fainted again. About an hour later, Dugu Feng was awakened by the intense pain from his wounds. The boy was sixteen years old, with handsome features, wearing a tattered robe, many parts stained with blood. He slowly opened his eyes, his gaze blank as he looked around. He saw no danger; he was in an unknown space, and the ropes binding him had disappeared. "Am I dead?" "Could this be the underworld?" Dugu Feng muttered to himself. "I cannot die, my revenge is yet to be taken!" Dugu Feng roared to the sky. This roar aggravated his wounds, causing him to grimace and scream in pain. Then, Dugu Feng burst into laughter. "Pain means I am still alive! Those treacherous villains harmed me, but Heaven will not destroy me! I, Dugu Feng, the young master of the Northern Profound Sect, swear here that the pain I suffer today will be repaid a hundredfold by those within the Northern Profound Sect who harmed me—a blood debt to be paid in blood!" At this moment, inside the spacious council hall of the Northern Profound Sect, several bloodied corpses lay scattered on the floor, the blood still smeared. The Grand Elder of the Northern Profound Sect, Dugu Kun, sat arrogantly in the main seat, while the crowd below wore solemn expressions. Dugu Kun's eyes were filled with cold killing intent as he glared at a man in black beside him and angrily demanded, "That little bastard Dugu Feng, wasn't he tied up and thrown into the lake to feed the fish? Why are you telling me now that Dugu Feng is missing? Explain yourself clearly, or you'll all die!" The leading man in black trembled and knelt down, kowtowing as he said, "About an hour ago, that little bastard Dugu Feng was tied up and thrown into Xuanming Lake. As he sank, a green light suddenly appeared in the lake and enveloped him. After that green light disappeared, Dugu Feng... Disappeared without a trace. I failed in this matter; I have elderly parents and young children to support. Please, Elder, have mercy! Please don't kill me!" Dugu Kun's eyes flashed with ferocity as he strode towards the man in black, kicking him to the ground. He then grabbed the man's head and squeezed hard, causing blood to spurt out, a bloody and gruesome sight. "You can't even handle such a trivial matter, what use are you? You're infuriating! Go find that little bastard Dugu Feng right now, alive or dead!" Dugu Kun said fiercely. Instantly, the hall fell silent, so quiet you could hear a pin drop. The elders and disciples trembled like leaves, quietly taking a few steps back, afraid of being caught in the crossfire. The disciples shouted, "We will follow the Grand Elder's lead without hesitation, we will go find that little bastard right away!" After saying that, they rushed towards the door, wishing they had two more legs, fearing that if they were too slow, they would be killed on the spot by the Grand Elder. "If you don't find that little bastard today, you will all bring your heads to me," the Grand Elder said sternly, his face contorted with rage. The Grand Elder coldly swept his gaze over the Enforcement Elder Dugu Zhong and the Third Elder Dugu Lin in the hall. The two remaining elders of the Northern Profound Sect took a slight step back, their expressions complex. The Third Elder, Dugu Lin, chuckled and said, "Brother, that little bastard's dantian is destroyed, and he's severely injured. Where could he have escaped to? He probably got eaten by the monsters in the lake!" The First Elder ignored Dugu Lin, glanced at Du Huzhong with a grim expression, and strode away from the council hall, quickly heading towards the lake. "Dugu Feng must die. We've planned this for so long; the plan can't fail. Where did that little bastard go? Was he rescued by someone hiding in the shadows?" Dugu Kun murmured to himself. "May Heaven protect the young sect leader so he can escape this calamity safely," Dugu Zhong silently prayed, his eyes filled with worry, before slowly turning and quietly leaving.

    If you're looking for a cultivation novel, you absolutely must read this. The male protagonist has a different side – ruthless and decisive, he'll fight to the death! It's definitely worth a look. I still have twenty chapters left to read, just saving them for later. If you're interested, give it a try. Feel free to criticize if you don't like it.

    I hope all my godparents will take a look at this book. Aside from the first chapter being a bit long and rambling for setup, the rest is incredibly exciting. It's a fantasy novel with a large ensemble cast. Read the second chapter first, and if you don't like it, feel free to criticize me. This book is entirely handwritten; I've poured a lot of effort into it. I know hard work doesn't guarantee success, and relying on sympathy won't get you anywhere. I just want to give my work a chance. The following is an excerpt from the novel. If you like it, please take a look. I want to thank all my godparents and give you all a big thank you. Content: As Li Siyue revealed herself, countless vengeful spirits shrouded in thick black energy surged out of the ground like a tidal wave. Their faces were ferocious and terrifying. Some gripped Li Siyue's ankles and bit them, while others opened their fanged maws and lunged at her body. Terrifying screams echoed from all directions, reverberating throughout the entire cave. Li Siyue's eyes sharpened, and she instantly activated the Cold Moon Technique. In an instant, the cold moonlight surged from her body. The ghosts that had lunged at her before they could even touch her clothes were instantly frozen by the extreme cold contained within the moonlight, turning into crystal-clear ice sculptures suspended in the air. Li Siyue lightly touched the ground with her toes, and a visible ripple of moonlight spread out from her. The ghosts that had entangled her ankles didn't even have time to scream before shattering like glass within the ripples, dissipating into countless ice crystals. She leaped into the air, her spiritual power intertwining with the power of the cold moonlight, condensing into thousands of moon-colored flying swords around her. The swords spun wildly around her, emitting sharp whistling sounds. As the sword energy crisscrossed, the surrounding temperature plummeted, and a thick layer of frost instantly formed on the stone walls. Li Siyue lightly raised her jade-like hand and pointed towards the thousands of ice-sculpted ghosts suspended in mid-air. "Go!" A thousand flying swords shot out simultaneously, like a reversed silver meteor shower, each sword precisely piercing through an ice sculpture. The vengeful spirits of the ghosts were as fragile as paper before the moonlight flying swords. The moment they were pierced, the ice layer, along with the ghosts within, shattered into countless ice shards. The black energy was purified by the moonlight, emitting a hissing sound. Thousands of ghost soldiers were completely annihilated in a single breath. Then, even denser black energy surged forth from the cracks in the walls, from the corpses of cultivators, from the stone walls, and from the torches. Countless vengeful spirits surged out from all directions like a tidal wave, densely packed, filling the entire cave.
