In the World of Heavenly Sword, But Twenty Years Too Early

Yang Qing transmigrates into the world of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, awakening with the legendary template of Yang Guo. However, a miscalculation in time throws him twenty years earlier than the events he knows. This is an era where the founding ancestors of the great sects are still in their prime. Abbess Guo Xiang, the founder of the Emei Sect, is still alive. Zhang Sanfeng, the founder of the Wudang Sect, roams the martial world wielding the Zhenwu Sword to purge evil. Yang Dingtian rules as the Cult Leader of the Ming Cult, leading it to unprecedented prosperity across the Central Plains, while the sinister Baizun Daoist wreaks havoc upon the jianghu with his deadly Dark Ice Palm technique. Stranded in Jiaxing, Yang Qing finds himself face-to-face with Guo Xiang herself. As the founder of Emei studies his features, she cannot help but notice a striking resemblance to someone from her past. Scratching his head in awkward realization, Yang Qing must navigate a martial world filled with living legends, armed with the legacy of a hero whose story has not yet been written in this timeline.
