The Adventures of King Zengrun

He was once the Sword God Sect's most dazzling swordsmanship prodigy, its senior disciple. But through a twist of fate, she fed him a deadly poison with her own hands. He left the sect, was hunted by the imperial court, and became an enemy of the entire world.

He understands no sword.

The sword in his hand never cuts flesh. It cuts through cause and effect, severs the cycle of reincarnation, and shatters souls.

When five thousand imperial guards, experts from the three Soul Halls, and the entire Emperor Cloud Sect surrounded him, everyone thought victory was assured.

But he merely opened his eyes and gripped the dark, worn hilt at his waist.

“Return to dust, sink to earth.”

With one sword strike, all things return to dust.

This is a path of revenge that rises from the depths of hell, and a journey of protection spanning countless ages.

He meets the remnant soul of an ancient Sword God, an Asura God who burns his divine status for love, a guardian of the Heavenly Pillar who has endured in silence for ten thousand years, and a drunken God Emperor who hides behind his laughter and curses.

He encounters betrayal, and loyalty;

death, and new life.

He will forge a new path, one no one has ever walked before.

And at the end of that path lies protection.
