Breaking My Sword to Question Heaven

Xiao Che, the son of a frontier hunter, was born with a sword bone that was carved out and a barren dantian. The immortal sects rejected him, and the villagers regarded him as an ill omen. All he had left was his dying father's last request: "Guard the Sword Mound." He can hear the unfulfilled obsessions of the dead: revenge, protecting their homes, and keeping promises. These all condense into sword intent, hidden in the Sword Mound, abandoned shrines, and soul-calming steles. While others cultivate qi in pursuit of immortality, he forges swords from obsession. From avenging the slaughter of his village to guarding a lonely city with nothing but a sword, from standing at the tip of the demonic path's sword to fighting a bloody war for his homeland, he gradually tears open the shocking conspiracy behind ascension. When the gods reap the world and a hundred swords ring as one, he breaks his sword and questions the heavens: What gives the Heavenly Dao the right to stand above all?
