Xuanyuan Qianjin, the Dark Venerable, was one of the ten greatest masters in the martial world, whose fearsome reputation shook the four seas. During a battle in the Valley of the Immortal Mountain, he was ambushed and killed through the schemes of treacherous enemies. Fortunately, a fragment of his soul survived, allowing him to be reincarnated into the body of Hua Wuque, an insignificant eldest son of a third-rate noble family. One legendary life came to an end, while another journey slowly began. With his old enemies still at large and past grudges unresolved, he draws upon the supreme martial arts knowledge in his mind, carefully plotting every move as he conquers the martial world, crushes powerful foes, and once again embarks on the supreme path toward becoming a Martial God.
