The Heavenly Venerable of Ten Thousand Daos in the City

In Canglan City, a 22nd-century metropolis of advanced technology, night-shift security guard Lin Ye takes a wrong turn because of a commuting mishap and wanders into an abandoned underground station. There, he happens upon the ancient legacy The Complete Canon of Ten Thousand Dao and becomes the new Guardian of the Seal. By then, the seals between Heaven and Earth are steadily weakening. Chasms are awakening one after another across the land, and leaking baleful energy is spawning evil creatures. Millions of ordinary people have no idea that an imminent cataclysm threatens to wipe them out. From his first battle against a baleful spirit in the underground pipe network to seizing a remnant formation stone from an old mansion in the western part of the city, Lin Ye begins cultivating with an ordinary mortal body. He joins forces with heirs to the ancient martial arts, coordinates with the government’s Baleful Energy Suppression Team, and establishes the Pavilion of Ten Thousand Dao in Sunset Valley. He traverses the land to gather all nine remnant stones, reforging the seal to protect the mortal world. When ancient sects from beyond the realms breach the barrier and descend, bringing the human world’s defenses to the brink of collapse, Lin Ye leads the Pavilion of Ten Thousand Dao’s elite forces into battle. He wages war across the Myriad Worlds and ultimately becomes the universally acknowledged First of Ten Thousand Dao, forging an extraordinary legend of mortal ascendance.
