Chapter 1
The taste of mud and copper filled Li Chen’s mouth. The heavy rain poured down from the pitch-black sky in thick, freezing sheets. It beat against his thin, torn clothes, soaking him to the bone. The cold was terrible, but it was nothing compared to the crushing weight pressing his face deep into the wet earth.A heavy leather boot, glowing with a faint blue light, stood firmly on the side of his head."Is this all you have, you useless piece of trash?" a voice laughed. It was a loud, arrogant sound that cut through the noise of the heavy storm.Li Chen tried to open his right eye, but thick mud blinded him. He could only hear the cruel laughter of Zhao Feng. Zhao Feng was a high-ranking disciple in the Outer Sect. He was wearing clean, dry clothes. The rain seemed to bounce off him, pushed away by the strong energy, the Qi, flowing around his body."I asked you a question, cripple," Zhao Feng sneered, pressing his boot harder against Li Chen’s skull. The pressure made Li Chen’s ear

Chapter 2
Li Chen watched through half-closed eyes. He wanted to scream. He wanted to reach out and take it back, but his body would not obey. He could only watch as Zhao Feng held the dark green jade up to the dim light of the stormy sky.Zhao Feng wiped the rain off the jade with his thumb. He closed his eyes for a second, sending his spiritual sense into the stone, hoping to find a hidden treasure, a secret weapon, or a stash of energy.A few seconds later, Zhao Feng opened his eyes. He looked deeply disappointed and deeply angry."Nothing," Zhao Feng spat. "There is not a single drop of spiritual energy in this thing. It is a completely normal, useless piece of rock. You fought me over a piece of garbage?""Give it... back..." Li Chen whispered. His voice was so quiet it was almost lost in the wind. Blood bubbled at his lips. "It is... my mother's...""Your mother's?" Zhao Feng laughed cruelly. "Your mother was probably just as useless as you are. A family of trash. No wonder they were wipe

Chapter 3
Li Chen gasped as he felt his consciousness, his very soul, being ripped out of his broken body.He felt himself falling. He was falling upward, into the dark light of the stone. He spun faster and faster. The courtyard, the frozen rain, and his bleeding body faded away into nothingness. He was dragged into a pitch-black spinning vortex.He tried to scream, but he had no mouth. He was just a thought, a spirit, flying through an endless, terrifying tunnel of darkness. Whoosh. Then, the spinning stopped.Li Chen opened his eyes. He was no longer in the muddy courtyard. He was no longer in pain. His body felt light, as if he was made of air. He looked around and his breath caught in his throat.He was standing in the middle of a boundless, endless void. Everywhere he looked, there was deep, dark space. But it was not empty. Billions of stars glowed in the distance, painting the darkness with beautiful colors of purple, blue, and gold. Huge clouds of cosmic dust drifted slowly through th

Chapter 4
"I will eat the heavens themselves." Li Chen's words were small in the giant, empty space. But they carried a heavy weight. They were filled with ten years of anger, pain, and tears.When the giant dragon-turtle heard these words, it did not laugh at him. Instead, the massive creature took a deep breath.WHOOSH. The breath of Old Kui was like a star exploding. A massive wave of burning golden heat rushed forward. It hit Li Chen like a physical wall. The light was so bright it blinded him. The pressure was so heavy it felt like a mountain was falling on his tiny, ghost-like body.Most people would have fallen to their knees. Most people would have cried and begged for the giant monster to stop.But Li Chen did not move. He planted his feet on the invisible floor of the starry void. He crossed his arms over his face to block the blinding light. He pushed his body forward against the terrible wind. His soul was shaking, but his mind was totally calm. He had already survived the worst p

Chapter 5
Thousands of words, symbols, and ancient images exploded inside his brain.He saw visions of a time long before the Azure Sword Sect existed. He saw massive, terrifying beasts the size of planets opening their mouths and swallowing entire stars. He saw rivers of fire being sucked into empty black vortexes. He saw dark figures standing on top of mountains of bones, looking up at the sky and pulling the energy out of the clouds.Every image burned a new piece of knowledge into his mind. Every ancient symbol was a lesson in how to control his starving body.“Devour the light. Devour the dark. Let the body become a cage. Let the root become a black hole. Swallow the heavens, eat the earth, and make all power your own.” The mantra of the first technique echoed in his mind over and over again: Swallowing the Heavens' Breath.It was a special way of breathing. It did not just take air into the lungs. It opened up every single pore on the skin. It turned the human body into a giant, forceful

Chapter 6
The heavy, falling raindrops suddenly curved in the air. Instead of dropping straight down, they pulled toward Li Chen’s body. The spiritual energy hidden inside the rainwater and the storm winds was weak, but it was everywhere.Normally, a cultivator at the first level would sit for hours just to gather a tiny drop of this energy. They had to coax it, invite it carefully into their bodies.Li Chen did not invite it. He ripped it out of the air.WHOOSH. A faint, dark wind started to swirl around Li Chen’s sitting body. It was a vacuum. The ambient spiritual Qi of the storm was violently sucked into his skin.As soon as the energy entered his body, it felt like cold water hitting a burning hot stove. The Qi rushed wildly through his veins. It moved directly toward his dantian—the energy center just below his stomach.There, his Primordial Chaos Root sat in the dark. For fifteen years, it had been a starving, empty mouth. Now, finally, it got a taste of food.The Chaos Root acted like

Chapter 7
The dark, tiny wooden hut was cold and quiet. Outside, the heavy storm continued to rage. The rain beat against the thin straw roof like thousands of tiny drums. Cold wind blew through the wide cracks in the rotting wood walls.Li Chen stood perfectly still in the center of the dark room. He closed his eyes and took a slow, deep breath. The air smelled of wet dirt and old wood.For the first time in his life, he did not feel weak. He did not feel cold. The dark energy, the Qi—flowed smoothly through his newly healed veins. He had reached the First Level of Qi Condensation. His hearing was incredibly sharp. He could hear a small drop of water falling from the ceiling to the floor. He could hear the wind moving through the grass outside. Then, he heard something else. Squish. Splash. Squish.Heavy footsteps were walking through the thick mud outside. They were coming straight toward his hut.Li Chen opened his eyes. The room was pitch black, but he could see the faint outline of the do

Chapter 8
The hot, violent fire Qi entered his hand. But before it could burn his blood vessels, the ancient power of the Heavenly Void Devouring Art wrapped around it. The dark energy crushed the wild fire, making it harmless, and dragged it quickly up Li Chen's arm.The fire traveled down his shoulder, through his chest, and directly into his dantian. There, his Primordial Chaos Root was waiting.The Chaos Root was like a giant, starving beast that had just been woken up. It had eaten the weak, thin energy of the rain, but it was still incredibly hungry. Now, a rich, powerful meal of pure fire Qi was delivered straight to its mouth. The Chaos Root swallowed the fire Qi instantly.Li Chen felt a sudden, massive explosion of heat inside his stomach. It was not painful; it was wonderful. The Chaos Root aggressively chewed up Deacon Lin's Fourth Level fire energy. It ripped the fire apart, cleaned out all the impurities, and turned it into pure, raw, explosive power.The dark tattoo on Li Chen

Chapter 9
"This is just the beginning," Li Chen whispered to the storm. He wiped the rain from his eyes and immediately dropped down next to Deacon Lin’s body. There was no time to think about philosophy. He needed to survive, and survival meant resources.In the cultivation world, a dead body was just an opportunity.Li Chen quickly searched Deacon Lin’s wet robes. He pushed aside the broken bones and blood. A few seconds later, his hand touched something hard and heavy tied to Deacon Lin’s wide leather belt.Li Chen pulled it loose. It was a small, grey cloth pouch. It looked very simple, but it felt strangely heavy for its tiny size. The cloth was smooth and cold, woven with fine silver threads.Li Chen’s eyes lit up with excitement. "A storage pouch!"These small bags were magical items. They had a small pocket of space folded inside them, allowing a person to carry many heavy objects in a tiny bag. Normal outer sect disciples could never afford one of these. They cost hundreds of spirit
