Mu Yun, a disciple of the Tianyun Sect, possessed a perfect spiritual root and had once been expected to open the Heavenly Gate. Yet he spent his years on an endless path of Qi Refining.
After five thousand years of wandering, the Age of Dharma Decline arrived. Spiritual energy fell silent, and the Dao could no longer be found. Countless sects withered and faded, while Mu Yun remained fixated on building his foundation. He had already piled up an astonishing 9,177 layers of Qi Refining, yet the gateway to Foundation Establishment remained as distant and impassable as a heavenly chasm.
In the 21st century, artificially synthesized spiritual energy, or vital energy, emerged, and martial cultivation rose to prominence. As the last Qi Refining cultivator in the world, Mu Yun entered society to cultivate. Combining ancient cultivation methods with new developments, he sought out the rhythms of spiritual power in the modern city and searched for the truth of the Great Dao...
Mu Yun: “Don’t give me that nonsense about Qi Refining being low-class and unfit for the stage. What the hell are martial cultivators? Anyone who messes with me, be they Martial Saints or Martial Gods, will be crushed!”
