Hongmeng Heavenly Lord

Ye Chen, once the young master of the Ye clan, is stripped of his status after his father vanishes for three months. The clan's elder seizes power, exiles Ye Chen, and relegates him to tending medicinal fields. But the black wooden token left by his father begins to stir in his possession. In his dreams, a colossal black ark sails through seas of mist, and a gray-robed elder imparts a single word: "Ark." From Falling Star City to the Azure Cloud Sect, from the cultivation realm to the Immortal Realm, the Divine Realm, and finally the Hongmeng World, Ye Chen walks a path of defiance against heaven itself. Reforged with Hongmeng bones and wielding the Hongmeng Sword to sever the void's corruption, he follows the Ark Keeper's guidance across five realms. For thirty thousand years, the will of the void has ravaged all life. Rising from mortal flesh, Ye Chen ends that devastation with the power of Hongmeng—from a discarded scion trodden underfoot to the supreme lord who quells the five realms. Behind him is the sword his father polished for three hundred years; in his heart is the trembling hand of Su Wanqing as she dressed his wounds. Protection is his eternal dao.
