Master Gu Xuan

Lin Yan was born in Qingshi Village, an ordinary mortal with a faint, impure mixed spiritual root. Amid the teeming masses, he seized a slim chance at immortality and entered the Qingyun Sect as a low-ranking servant disciple. He had no peerless talent, no miraculous stroke of fortune, and no powerful patron to protect him. All that lay before him were grueling menial duties, scarce resources, and a perilous sect. With an inferior spiritual root, every step of cultivation was arduous. Within the sect, the strong preyed on the weak, and conflict was constant. He cultivated in the little free time left by his labor, guarded his principles amid deceit and intrigue, fought the limits of his talent with perseverance, and endured one calamity after another. From his first steps in gathering qi, through Foundation Establishment and Golden Core, he weathered mortal joys and sorrows, sect-wide bloodshed, and turmoil beyond the borders. Countless trials tempered his Dao heart; through a thousand tribulations, he would prove worthy of immortality. Witness how a humble servant boy breaks free of his mortal cage, traverses the long road to immortality, and ultimately forges a formidable reputation, becoming the renowned Ancient Mystic Immortal, Gu Xuan.
