The Ladder to Heaven Is Broken

The ladder to heaven is broken. People in the gray root world say that is fate. My father said that practicing martial arts would lead to death. Uncle Chen said that the living must take care of the living's affairs first. Gu Nanyi didn't. He refined his energy in the realm of death, buried his father outside the mine, and jumped off a cliff while being surrounded by pursuers. He has lost everything: relatives, mentors, friends, and cultivation. I also got some things: a piece of gray iron, a cut-off handle of a knife, and a mouthful of the last bit of energy squeezed from the root of the world. He has reached the peak of trance. On the day of the ascension, Zhou Taixuan, the elder of the Tianheng Sect's general altar, personally led the sky-locking formation to seal off the northern border. Gu Nanyi tried his best and finally touched the ladder line with his fingertips. The beam of light shot into the sky. He saw that the gray root world was getting smaller and smaller under his feet, like a gray-white stone. He thought this was the end. But he was wrong. The sky in the main world is very blue and there are many stars. At the other end of the ladder line, someone was holding it in his hand. I've been holding on to it for a long time.
