The shared understanding of all living beings gives rise to source power; what people believe shapes Heaven's Dao. Countless cultivators follow the rules in their practice, spending their lives trapped within the order imposed by heaven and earth.
The Blackstone Mine on Redfire Mountain is known as a graveyard for the living. At seven years old, Lin Mo was kidnapped and forced to spend eight years as a mine slave, trampled on by anyone who pleased. Day after day, he mined Xuanyuan Stones to sustain the upper-ranking cultivators, his life worth less than a blade of grass.
After a cave-in, Lin Mo stumbled into a forbidden mine shaft and obtained the Ancient Xuanworld Token, awakening a unique talent for analyzing and reconstructing source power. Others can only draw power from what the world understands, but he can see the paths of source power in all things at a glance, taking apart and reshaping the laws of heaven and earth as he pleases.
The mine overseer and the cultivators meant to refine him into a human cauldron. Armed with the token, Lin Mo fought his way out of that hell and severed the fate that bound him to the bottom rung.
He crosses the mortal domain, breaks through realm gates, and overturns the ossified cultivation system. From the lowly status of a mine slave, he uses the Xuanworld Token to defy Heaven's Dao, unchanged for countless ages.
