People say that only a perfected soul is the righteous path, while a flawed, broken soul makes you a cripple, an ill omen, and an evil seed, fit only to be killed and wiped out.
Shen Yan was once a hundred-year prodigy of the Yuanyang Sect. At ten, a soul examination revealed that he possessed a shattered, incomplete soul, and overnight he fell into the dust. Half his meridians were crippled, he was cast into the wasteland, his fellow disciples trampled him, his name was struck from the roster of prodigies, and everyone cursed him.
What the world does not know is that the so-called perfect Heavenly Dao is nothing but an age-old deception. The so-called broken soul and ruined body are the supreme Dao embryo, able to touch the source of Heaven and Earth.
After three years in hiding, Shen Yan masters the forbidden Myriad Fragments Return to the Void Art. He takes in all living things through his brokenness and shatters every law through ruin.
At the sect's grand ceremony, everyone waits to see his soul scatter. In his broken-souled body, he smashes the pride of a righteous prodigy with one punch, and tears open the curtain concealing this hypocritical world.
The sacrificial secrets of the Soul-Nurturing Institute, the hypocritical masks of the Nine Great Sects, the thousand-year shackles of the Perfect Heavenly Palace...
Though the whole world stands against him and myriad paths seek to destroy him, he will defy fate and press on.
The world seeks perfection; I alone embrace what is flawed. The world follows the Heavenly Dao; I shall defy the heavens!
When all fragments return to the void, I shall forge this divine realm with my broken soul!
