Ninefold Dao Seal

Nine Dao Seals lie scattered across the firmament, each concealing a secret of the Heavenly Dao. A boy abandoned by fate picks up the first one in a withered medicinal garden. Ye Chen thought his life would amount to nothing more than being a menial laborer, living unnoticed in a corner of the Qingyun Sect, then dying just as unnoticed. That is, until the Nine-Revolution Resurrection Grass crumbled to dust in his palm, and an ancient Dao Seal branded itself onto his soul. From then on, he devours all things and defies heaven to change his fate, bowing with every step and ascending to a new realm with every seal. Some see him as a demon, while others worship him as a god. Some are willing to die for him, while others fall into the abyss because of him. He says, “In this life, I defy fate, but hold fast to my true self. If the Heavenly Dao is unjust, I’ll shatter it. If the people suffer, I’ll stand as a wall of flesh and blood.” Through nine cycles of reincarnation and nine deaths, every fall is only so he can rise again, more wildly than before. “I seek no eternal immortality. I only ask that in this life, I protect those I love and uphold the Dao I believe in.” This is a story about a good-for-nothing who rises to greatness, but it is about more than just his rise. This is a legend about the nine Dao Seals, but it is more than just a legend. It is an epic song woven from passion and tenderness, singing of this: If heaven stands in my way, I’ll defy it; if fate deals me a cruel hand, I’ll change it.
