Kendo Embers

"A sword cultivator may die standing, but never live on their knees!" After falling into the North Sea, Xie Xuanyi was unexpectedly granted a second life through the nourishment of the Spring of Immortality. With his past afflictions cured and new flames ignited, a single ember now threatens to start a prairie fire. As demons, sword immortals, and Buddhist saints emerge in a chaotic dance, a new golden age dawns. Having suffered from a frail body in his previous life, he now refines his physique with golden essence to forge an indestructible Vajra bone body. Where three hundred flying swords once broke, he now refines an entire grotto-heaven of sword qi. Though he claims only modest skill in talismans, formations, and Daoist arts, Xie Xuanyi sits alone within a grand formation, his ancient sword resting across his lap, ready to prove that the path of a sword cultivator need not be limited to the sword alone.
