Ye Shangqiu was once a constable at a border government office in the Xia Kingdom. Born in Baize Abyss, he resigned without hesitation to pursue cultivation and break free of life's constraints. Bearing a sword named Slaughter, he put an end to wars and held back the Demon Abyss. After twenty-four years of life, he comprehended a new realm and caught the eye of Wuhuanzi, a Celestial Master of the current generation from Celestial Master Valley, who had reached the Uncertainty Realm. Ye Shangqiu entered the valley to study under him. Just as he thought his life was complete, however, his eldest senior brother, Tian Nanxing, told him that the Dark Cycle, which came once every three hundred years, was about to begin. The Dark Cycle was a purge of the mortal realm by the gods and Buddhas of the heavens, who sought to obtain the Source of the Sacred. Unwilling to let fate bring his progress to a halt, Ye Shangqiu trained hard, but the Dark Cycle arrived right on schedule. Pitying the people of the mortal realm, the Celestial Master transformed himself into the Dao and shielded them from the gods and Buddhas of the heavens for three hundred years, all so that more powerful people could emerge in the mortal realm and resist their fate.
Ye Shangqiu cultivated with all his might, entered the Seven Star Secret Realm and the Eye of the Eastern Sea, and at last became a powerhouse of the Uncertainty Realm. Leading his senior brothers and sisters, he fought his way through the vast heavens and defeated the Myriad Worlds, which had originally been ruled by a single god!
