Martial Warriors battle it out in forests, destroying trees in single punches and kicks, uprooting them with ease. There is a world hidden underneath the mundane realm of mortals, one where martial prowess is everything, and living and dying by the edge of one's blade is natural.

This world... is being threatened.

Enter Kang Yilan, a seventeen-year-old convict sentenced to life, whiling away her days mining ores in the southern mountains when she happens upon a fateful encounter.

Read as she embarks on a journey that will change her life, and the lives of millions of others, forever.

Some magic elements are borrowed from Savage Divinity and a handful of other good wuxia/xianxia stories, but the story itself is pretty original if I do say so myself. If you feel bothered by my borrowing elements from other magic systems, a) I'm not making money off of this... yet, and b) almost all Xianxia copy each other. This one, at least, has direction where other xianxia don't.
