The First Sword in the Sky

Shitou didn't know his surname was Qin. He didn't know that outside the abandoned city there was the Immortal Cultivation Sect, the rift in the demon world, and the Xuanming Boat hanging above the sky. All he knew was squatting at the door of the tavern, cleaning dishes, and occasionally looking up at the sky - that was the promise left by his only childhood friend when he left. When he was ten years old, he left the abandoned city and strayed into the monster forest, where he protected a seriously injured phantom mink with his life. He did not expect that this phantom mink, which was not even as good as the first level, was actually the remnant soul of the empress who controlled all the demons 3,700 years ago. The empress said: "You have the blood of the Qin family flowing in your body. What your father didn't teach you, I will teach you." There are traitors in the demon world who have not been eliminated, there are bosses in the Xuanming Palace who are eyeing them, and there are deeper secrets hidden under the Buddha's light in Mount Xumi. But Shi Tou didn't know anything. He only knew how to practice swordsmanship over and over again. From the first red streak appearing on the back of his neck, to the red streak covering his entire arm, to the knife splitting the mountain stream - he didn't know how far he would go, but the knife was already in his hand. Many years later, when the Nine Heavens sky cracked above his head and the eyes from outside the three realms fell, he held the old knife he brought from the abandoned city and thought of that afternoon when he looked up at the sky. The sky is very high and he is very short. Someone once told him: "You have to remember to look at the sky." He looked. So he came here. Jiuxiao's first sword was initially just a stone squatting on the threshold.
