Bone-Shattering Resonance

Three years of blocked meridians had reduced Jiang Chen to nothing but a laughingstock. The entire sect called him worthless. When his fiancée arrived to break their engagement and his cultivation resources were stripped away, he hit rock bottom. Then a fragment of an ancestral bone fused with his body, awakening the Bone-Shattering Resonance Art—a forbidden technique that tempered his flesh with alien spiritual energy. But there was a catch: only three cycles per day. Exceed that limit, and his meridians would shatter beyond repair. Worthless? Three cycles were more than enough to kill. The Bell family held power. The Lin clan applied pressure. A mysterious figure in green robes coveted the bone fragment. Everyone waited for the day Jiang Chen would be driven out of the sect. What they didn't know was that half a wisp of a residual soul slept within that shard—and every night, Jiang Chen relived the agony of bones being broken. He didn't just want to climb back to the peak of martial arts. He wanted the truth behind his father's disappearance years ago. Meridians ruined? Then shatter the bones and forge them anew. Spiritual power depleted? Then trade his very life for strength. Jiang Chen rose from the mud with his gaze fixed upward. Strike him once, and he would take your fist. Cut off his path, and he would crush your entire mountain beneath his feet. He drew clear lines between gratitude and grievance. He never hesitated to kill. He spoke neither of mercy nor of righteousness—only of staying true to his own heart. This is the story of a discarded cripple crawling step by step out of the abyss, grabbing every person who once looked down on him—and dragging them one by one into the very mud he had left behind.
