Thanks to an immortal master's recognition, Shen Yuan entered the Nanyue Sect to cultivate at the age of ten. To repay the sect's kindness, he honored his elders and looked after his junior brothers and sisters. To protect the sect, he risked his life several times.
But he never expected that on his twentieth birthday,
his beloved junior brother would frame him, the person he loved would abandon him, and the master he revered would cut open his back and dig out his Dao Bone, giving what should have belonged to him to his junior brother instead. After ten years of dreaming, Shen Yuan finally understood that this so-called recognition had been exploitation from the very beginning.
But when Shen Yuan fought his way out of the sect and returned to his hometown, he discovered that his entire family had already been slaughtered.
He had no home left.
The reserved, courteous gentleman became a complete madman.
For the next three hundred years, the world would know no Nanyue Sect senior disciple.
There was only Shen Yuan, who cultivated both the demonic and orthodox paths.
Shen Yuan braved secret realms and seized opportunities, doing whatever it took to take revenge.
From a good-for-nothing whose Dao Bone was utterly destroyed, he became the supreme ruler of the three realms. Later, he defied heaven itself, trampled the Yellow Springs, overturned the Underworld, and, by carving his bones and blood and transforming his flesh into a lotus, protected the living beings of Daichuan and returned them to the cycle of reincarnation.
The night Shen Yuan ascended to godhood was the night he took his revenge. Flames soared above the Nanyue Sect as its disciples fled. He trampled the foremost immortal sect beneath his feet, shattered his master's bones, cut open his junior brother's back to take out the Dao Bone, and trampled and mercilessly tormented the lover he had once cherished.
In just one night, he destroyed the colossal Nanyue Sect.
From then on, Shen Yuan's infamy spread far and wide. He became the supreme ruler of the three realms, feared throughout the continent, and everyone bowed before him.
Bonus Scene:
Shen Yuan was ruthless and committed every evil imaginable. With no other recourse, the great immortal sects went to plead before the founding ancestor of the immortal sects. "We beg you to come out of seclusion and slay the demon Shen Yuan, restoring order!"
The founding ancestor glanced at them indifferently. "Yuanyuan, what do you think?"
The great immortal sects thought the name sounded familiar and looked up in confusion. Then they saw Shen Yuan, dressed in red and approaching with sword in hand, watching them with cold eyes. Everyone turned deathly pale and collapsed to the ground in terror.
Shen Yuan flicked his sword and asked nonchalantly, "Who did you say you wanted to kill?"
Only then did the great immortal sects realize that their founding ancestor had long since become this demon's lover.
