Myriad Immortals Come to Court

Lu Ye, the second son of the Lu Family in Tianhe County, was once a peerless prodigy. At three he began cultivation, at six he tore apart a vicious tiger, at nine he entered the Great Qian Prodigy List and became engaged to the direct daughter of the Qin Noble Family. At fourteen he passed the Autumn Examination as the youngest top scholar in three hundred years, earning the emperor's praise as “the Qilin Child of the Lu Family.” But three years ago, he fell into a coma after a mysterious calamity. Now, at seventeen, he awakens in a coffin to find his own funeral underway, and the clan in utter ruin.

The Lu Family’s supreme elders—eighteen in all—died in battle at Greedy Wolf Pass. The clan has lost its backbone. His elder brother Lu Xiao is crippled by illness; his sister-in-law Pan Yingxiu, backed by the powerful Pan Family and the Spiritual Pivot Dao Sect, attempts to seize control by installing her own brother Pan Yunfeng as the young master. The Lu clansmen are grief-stricken and leaderless, with vultures circling to carve up their territory.

Lu Ye rises from the coffin. He is no longer the same youth. During his three‑year coma, his soul was transported by the mysterious Nine Hells Sword Diagram to the Outer Realm Battlefield of the Spirit Cang Realm. There, as the sole junior, he served as a scout, witnessed the brutal war between the Spirit Cang forces and Outer Realm gods and demons, formed deep bonds with nineteen supreme Ancestors, and fought alongside them. When the war ended, all nineteen Ancestors perished, leaving behind their wills and inheritances within Lu Ye’s sea of consciousness as nineteen blazing stars. Lu Ye alone survived and returned.

He now carries the legacy of those Ancestors, including the Chaotic Cavity Nine Forging Scripture, one of the three great wonders of the Spirit Cang Realm. He deliberately destroys his former cultivation—Spirit Guiding ninth level—and rebuilds it from scratch, reaching the sixth level of Spirit Guiding overnight, with a foundation far greater than before. He also possesses the Profound Gold Jade Slip retrieved from the battlefield, a key to open the Lu Family’s ancestral secret realm.

Facing Pan Yingxiu’s power play, Lu Ye acts without hesitation. He executes the disloyal Third Steward Lu Shan and takes Pan Yunfeng hostage, forcing Pan Yingxiu to back down. He declares himself the new family head, and the entire Lu clan supports him. Yet the internal crisis is only half solved. Externally, the Qin Noble Family—his future father‑in‑law, Qin Wushang, a Profound Furnace realm Martial Ancestor—has seized the Lu Family’s She Yue Pavilion, which guards the ancestral residence containing a vital secret. Pan Yingxiu dares him to confront Qin Wushang, a clear trap. But Lu Ye must reclaim the pavilion, for the secret there can determine the family’s fate.

Lu Ye also burns with a deeper purpose. He is resolved to return to the Outer Realm Battlefield, to recover the heroic spirits of his fallen comrades and to mend the broken heavens. He will settle accounts with those who sealed the retreat and abandoned them. And he must uncover the hidden truth behind the Greedy Wolf Pass disaster—the mysterious letter from his uncle Lu Xingyi, the disappearance of the Lu Family’s pillar, and the betrayal that cost the clan its elders. His vengeance will be absolute.

Now, with the Nine Hells Sword Diagram dormant in his right palm, the wisdom of nineteen Ancestors sealed in his soul, and a reforged foundation, Lu Ye shoulders the burden of a broken clan. He will crush internal dissent, face down the Qin Family, unlock the ancestral secret, and ultimately ascend to the Outer Realm to fulfill the final wishes of the dead. The Lu Family’s sky will not fall—because Lu Ye has risen from the coffin.
