Sage of the Grasslands

Year after year, white blizzards sweep the land. The northern desert is frozen solid, the tribes of the grasslands wage war against one another, and herders are as expendable as grass, while cattle and sheep are worth more than human lives. Mountain temples tower above the clouds, monopolizing sacred chants and initiations. Grassland nobles inherit their pastures and herds of horses. The immortal sects of the Central Plains control spirit veins and elixirs, cutting off the path to cultivation for ordinary people. Amid the chaos, Golden Clans vie for the title of Khan, black-hatted Living Buddhas raise their guardian spirits, and nine immortal sects look down upon the mortal world. Countless herders struggle to survive amid wind and snow. Huang Jin wakes to find himself in the body of Altan, a young herder on the verge of freezing to death. The only thing that came with him is a proficiency panel.
