Shen Yan spent three years clawing his way from a poor family in the wilderness into the Xuanlei Sect. All his years of bitter cultivation had one goal: to obtain the sect's thousand-year-old spirit mushroom and stabilize the incurable cold poison in his little sister's body.
At the ceremony to awaken spiritual roots, he summoned a top-grade thunder spirit root, and the spirit mushroom was within reach. But Qin Xiao, consumed by jealousy in the shadows, struck him with a vicious blow, shattering his spiritual root and branding him with the disgrace of being a calamity-attracting corpse.
His cultivation crippled, he was thrown into the Falling Thunder Valley to die.
Everyone was certain that the day the heavenly thunder fell would be the day his bones dissolved.
But no one knew that within the shattered remains of his spiritual root lay a path that defied the rules.
The world fled at the sight of tribulation lightning, seeing heavenly thunder as a deadly disaster.
He alone could devour thunder with his bones, feed on tribulations, and temper them!
The more violently the heavenly thunder raged, the stronger his foundation became. The denser the tribulation's malice, the steadier his path to the Great Dao.
The valley's thunderous roar became the trumpet call of his return.
He would settle accounts with each enemy who stole the medicine he needed and cut off his sister's chance to live.
He would protect his frail little sister with every ounce of his thunderous power.
Feeding on countless bolts of thunder with his shattered remains, he would climb through tribulation and forge a path of thunder cultivation no one had ever walked before!
