Forging the Dao Through Martial Arts and the Supernatural

The Heavenly Dao is incomplete, and the path to immortality is closed. Cultivation can only find a different way forward, taking the body as its foundation and transcending the mortal through martial arts.

Though these methods are bizarre and terrifying, those who master them gain immense power, far beyond that of ordinary people. This has drawn many to the path of strange martial arts.

After transmigrating here and becoming a martial constable, he felt uneasy once he learned what kind of world this was. He possessed a System but had no idea what it was for, so he planned to rely on his own efforts to cultivate, grow stronger, and protect himself.

Unexpectedly, one day, while returning home from the black market, he found a fragment of a strange martial art called the Art of Ten Thousand Eyes. Before he could react, a flash of blue light appeared, and the System absorbed the art into his mind, completing it and presenting him with three options to choose from.

[Art of Ten Thousand Eyes: To practice this art, take a nail from a coffin that has been in use for fifty years and grind it into a needle as fine as a strand of hair. Pierce both eyes once a day, then cover them with blood-soaked cloth. Repeat this for ten thousand days, until your eyes are covered with ten thousand holes, and the art will be complete.]

[Beast-Breaking Eyes: To practice this art, consume the eyes of a hundred livestock and wild beasts, along with the five elemental substances: natural gold, century-old wood, dark yin water, heart-blood fire, and sedimentary earth. Then the art will be complete.]

[Heaven Without Eyes: Humans are born with two eyes, the roots of sight. To practice this art, one must destroy one eye and establish another: the left is yin, the right is the eye. The yin eye must be destroyed and the yang eye established. After destroying the yin eye, use the empty socket to gaze at the sky at midnight each day and gather the power of heavenly yin. To establish the yang eye, gaze at the sky at noon each day and gather the power of heavenly yang. Continue until one pupil is pitch-black and the other stark white, and the art will be complete.]
