About

The Immortals who walk the sky know little of the earth beneath them, and know less of the Sun and three Moons in the sky. The Great Waves have rested for over six hundred years. Ages have passed in that time. Life has flourished, and the World is reaching towards stagnation. In the lowest lands, beyond the shores, on the Islands, such a fate can not be seen. There in the mud, life is venerated and worshipped, but not free. Hao was born and raised in that culture, but was rejected by its people. In time, even those whom he trusted most shoved him forward into waters unknown. His first day on land was peaceful. Before the end of his second day, a human descended from the sky. His freedom seemed to slip from him again. Fighting his way through the ranks of a dying Sect in a war-torn region of a World. Can a single mortal raised in the lowest of the mortal lands rise to the path of Immortals when they all wish to use him? Can he learned more than even they could ever know, or will the madness of the Cultivation World swallow him before he finds the end of the web the Universe spins around him? Expectations: - A Detailed Cultivation and Magic system starts slow and simple. -Extensively built Worlds, Battlefields, and Secret Realms. (Weather, Sects, Rich History, big and small Details) -Weak to strong, (Close to OP but reasonable. Takes a loss here and there and walks with it to the drawing table.) -Moral Struggles. MC starts with a Daoist/Pacifist outlook, and tests his learned ideals of peace and life against the natural order. -Character Driven -The growth of Multiple characters. (Found family and Friends) 3+ chapters a week | 1.5k to 3.5k Words. -Tropes: A Twist on the Classic Cultivation system that tells its own story about World(s), Alot of tropes as well, I try to make each my own and twist in new ways, Alchemy to Formations, everything in between. Non-human races, jade-skinned sea demons, and house-sized Wood-Cultivator cows to Dragons and Phoenixes.  Fistfights to magic. Natural treasures to man-made artifacts. Mortal Fruit to Immortal Trees. Physical Cultivation that reforges flesh and bone with elements.
