Sealing the Origin of Ten Thousand Things

Chen Fan, a youth burdened by the curse in the bloodline of the ancient Wanhui clan, was born with peerless potential to command all five elements. Yet the bloodline curse, Sealing the Origin, shackled all his power. To outsiders, he was a good-for-nothing with a dead spirit core and no talent at all. To evade pursuit by the Xuyan Pavilion, Chen Fan went into hiding with Wan Ning, an orphan from a collateral branch of his clan, concealing their identities at Fengyan Academy, known for its open-minded atmosphere. Chen Fan deliberately kept a low profile to stay alive, but was repeatedly dragged into trouble. At the Origin-Testing Tower, he was forced to break through the bloodline curse, and his astonishing five-element power burst into the open, thrusting him into the heart of the entire cultivation world's turmoil. The bounty hunter Mo Qi and Yan Zheng of the Chenlan Alliance soon gathered around him. As they dodged the Xuyan Pavilion's assassins and navigated the competing interests of the five top sects, they searched far and wide for the clan's Five-Element Ancient Seals and lost legacy. Chen Fan gradually came to understand that the bloodline curse could not be destroyed by force. Trying to break it by force would only shatter his very foundation and kill him. The true path was not to smash his shackles, but to learn to live alongside the wound of fate he was born with. Ambitious schemers sought to seize the Wanhui bloodline and rule the world, but Chen Fan never aspired to reach the pinnacle of power. All he wanted was to protect his companions, uncover the truth his family had lost, and escape the fate dictated by his bloodline. And so began a storm that would sweep across the continent.
