Martial God of Great Yu

The thousand-year-old Great Yu Dynasty has finally begun its decline. Beneath the veneer of a peaceful and prosperous era, the empire simmers with hidden fires and treacherous undercurrents. The emperor is consumed by his quest for immortality, court officials engage in ceaseless intrigue, regional warlords sharpen their blades, and demonic beasts lurk at the borders, biding their time. Into this coming storm, Shen Mu is transmigrated into the body of a low-ranking member of the Chai Gang in Yunlong County. Resigned to a life of mediocrity, he is stunned to discover a mystical Martial Arts Tree growing within his mind. As the tree's main trunk grows, so does his cultivation base; as its branches extend, his combat techniques reach new heights. With this divine gift, Shen Mu gains the means to survive the turbulent age. But when he finally ascends to the fabled realm of the Martial God, he looks back and sees only a staircase of corpses—the fallen foes who paved his path to godhood. The sea ends where the sky meets the shore; at the summit of martial arts, he stands alone.
