Return to the Cloud Palace

Lu Xuanchen falls in battle across the myriad heavens. His remnant soul travels through countless ages and returns to his youthful body.

At the outer sect of the Azure Firmament Sect, he binds himself to a stubborn Righteous Path System. In this immortal world, where schemes lurk at every turn, he goes with the flow, tears open the Heavenly Dao's game of chess, and cuts down enemies and breaks through traps on his way back to the summit of the celestial palace.
