Path beyond the heavens

In a world where the heavens have grown corrupted after wars between gods, immortals, and demons, the universe itself teeters on the brink of chaos. At the heart of this vast cosmos flows the Universe River, a primordial stream connecting all worlds, guarded by the ancient and enigmatic Mother Dragon. Above it, the Universe Tree stretches its roots and branches across multiverses, holding the delicate balance of creation. Its core contains the Supreme Will, the force that prevents universal corruption. Amidst this grand tapestry lies the Mortal Realm, a land of kingdoms, sects, beasts, and early cultivators, where human ambition is constrained by mortality and fragile power. Here begins the story of Li Xian, a young disciple of the modest River-Seeker Sect. Curious, defiant, and unwilling to accept the boundaries of his world, he dreams of venturing beyond the sect to uncover the secrets whispered in the wind, the ruins hidden in the mountains, and the mysteries of the natural and supernatural alike. Li Xian’s journey is not one of instant ascension. His growth is patient, deliberate, and realistic—every step, every trial, every minor victory is earned. From crossing rivers and navigating forests to small skirmishes and disciplined meditation, he learns the rhythm of the world slowly, cultivating not just his body, but his mind and character. Along the way, friendships are forged with companions like the observant Yue Ling and the brash yet loyal Chen Tao, while subtle hints of a larger, hidden universe tease the horizon. In this Mortal Realm saga, power comes gradually, not miraculously. Li Xian will not uncover legendary weapons or ancient secrets in the first chapters. His first taste of cultivation breakthrough comes only after careful persistence, and the path to Mortal Realm mastery will span over a thousand chapters of trials, exploration, and reflection. Kingdoms will rise and fall, sects will flourish and fragment, and the first whispers of the Supreme Will and the Universe River will begin to surface. Path Beyond Heaven is a slow-burn cultivation epic, blending adventure, mystery, and grounded character growth. It traces the journey of a young mortal who, step by careful step, will rise to challenge the boundaries of his world, confront rogue immortals, expand his sect, and one day touch the edges of the cosmic forces that govern all existence.

Beyond the Cage of Heaven

In a world where cultivation defines destiny, freedom is the rarest treasure of all. The world of Tianheng is vast, layered, and cruelly ordered. Mountains float above seas of clouds, ancient sects rule territories older than recorded history, and every living being exists within a rigid hierarchy dictated by cultivation realms. From mortals who struggle merely to survive, to immortals who shape continents with a thought, all are bound by one unspoken truth: no one escapes the Great Cycle. Birth, cultivation, ascension, decline, death—this is the law of Heaven, enforced by the world itself. To cultivate is to gain power, but also to step deeper into the cage. The story follows Lin Yuan, a boy born in a hospital and abandoned by his mother. He is not born with a rare constitution, divine bloodline, or heavenly destiny. His talent is mediocre, his background insignificant, and his future—according to the world—already written. He is meant to live, struggle, cultivate if lucky, and die like countless others before him. Yet from a young age, Lin Yuan senses something deeply wrong with the way the world functions. He notices it in the fear of cultivators who claim immortality yet tremble at the mention of tribulation. He sees it in sect elders who preach enlightenment but obsess over lifespan-extending pills. He hears it in legends of ancient immortals who “ascended,” only to vanish from history entirely. Power is celebrated, but freedom is never discussed. This unease becomes the seed of his journey. When a chance encounter pulls Lin Yuan into the world of cultivation, he initially walks the same path as everyone else, absorbing spiritual energy, refining his body, breaking through realms. But unlike his peers, he does not cultivate out of ambition or reverence for Heaven. He cultivates out of defiance. Each breakthrough feels less like progress and more like another shackle snapping into place. The higher he climbs, the more clearly he perceives the invisible walls surrounding the world
