Above the Heavens

A thousand years of bitter cultivation beneath the heavens, all for the day he can stand above them! In the Heavenly Severance Gorge, a vital choke point between the Hongwu Dynasty and the Seven Killings Tribe of the demon race, a strange object suddenly fell from the sky. It swept up a group of cultivator-soldiers and sent them tumbling into the mighty currents of history... Song Zheng was merely one of the less remarkable among them. He had studied the writings of sages, but he was also a wolf soldier serving a sentence for his crimes. He could be impeccably polite, or erupt into murderous violence. Between life-and-death trials, a low-ranking cultivator-soldier on the frontier climbed step by step out of the abyss. Then one day, when he suddenly felt he could control his own fate, he realized that this was merely the basic qualification for claiming the throne above the heavens.
