A youth steps onto a road, a road seeking dharmic salvation, a road to solve the secret behind dharmic perfection. His words, his deeds and his very belief will be put to the test on multiple occasions. Follow him, as he makes his judgement, broadens his perspective and proves his position. You will quickly find out that my writing style differs a lot from usual novels. I like to integrate information about the world, the characters and the martial arts dynamically into the dialogues and interactions between the characters. I won't write from the perspective of the main character exclusively, but include the view other characters have onto the things happening around them. I won't give you a curfew about the cultivation system, the world, the countries and the main character during the first chapter. I want you to unveil more about the story as you continue reading instead of explaining everything from the start and just follow plotlines. I don't know whether this will turn out to be a pro or a con, but I mainly write this story as an experiment and find my own personally exclusive style. This will include a lot of experimentation and it's possible that I'll fail hard at some occasions so please bear with me and tell me and share your honest thoughts about subjects I can improve on. For the start I plan on releasing chapters on a daily schedule at 4:20 am until we reach chapter 20. After chapter 20 we'll see whether I'll hold the schedule or take it down a notch to match up to my motivation. I don't own the cover image.
