Upside Down Mountains and Seas

In the Orland continent, where magic and battle qi reign supreme, everyone follows a predetermined path toward divinity. During the Awakening Ceremony, sixteen-year-old Qin Yuan’s stone reacts with nothing. Branded as a useless body at the very bottom of Bluestone Town, he spends his days gathering herbs, hunting, and enduring endless ridicule. Yet, hidden deep within the Cangwu Mountains, Qin Yuan discovers a cave inscribed with ancient characters belonging neither to magic nor battle qi—a forgotten power system lost for a millennium known as Daoism. As a completely unprecedented power begins to stir within him through every breath and strike, Qin Yuan embarks on an uncharted path. With no predecessors to guide him and no complete manuals to follow, a boy deemed worthless must forge his own way forward, uniting martial arts with the Dao to revive the legendary mountains and seas.
