I was plucking corn in the field when I started bleeding, a sign that I was miscarrying. I called my husband, begging him to come home and take me to the hospital. However, he scolded me angrily, calling me a liar. “What the hell are you talking about? I haven’t touched you in months! How could you be pregnant?” My son grabbed the phone impatiently as well. “Mom, the teacher said lying is wrong! Aunt Laura’s blowing out the candles now, bye!” We had been married for seven years, yet they had completely forgotten that today was my birthday too. Despairing, I dialed another number. “Mother, I changed my mind. I’m going back to inherit the clinic.”

It was about time because my dad got a new girlfriend and said he wanted us to have a meal together to introduce the new woman into our lives. On the day we met, my college roommate saw my chat background, which had a photo of me and my dad, along with a series of transfer records. She lost her mind. She enlisted the support of our other roommates, who rarely paid me any attention and began to attack me, insisting that I was a side chick who deserved to die. I did not expect that my roommate would soon become my stepmom. Before I could explain, she accused me of trying to seduce my dad behind her back, shouting, "Shameless side chick! Going behind my back to seduce my boyfriend! All those times you said you were out studying?! Who knows if you were just meeting up with him?" I was once physically assaulted, stripped of my dignity, and forced to the restaurant for a public confrontation wearing ragged clothes. Then my dad came running to where I was hardly breathing and barely moving on the floor, bruised to the extreme. “Sweetheart, who did this to you?!”

Di sebuah desa kecil di kaki gunung pada galaksi terendah, lahir seorang bayi yang menggemparkan seluruh sembilan galaksi. Langit mendadak gelap, petir mengguncang jagat, dan seekor naga berkepala empat bermata dua belas muncul, hanya untuk lenyap masuk ke tubuh bayi itu. Fenomena itu membuat para penguasa galaksi tertinggi gemetar ketakutan—karena bayi itu terlahir dengan garis darah ilahi yang tak tertandingi. Bayi itu bernama Qin Shan, putra dari sepasang kultivator hebat yang bersembunyi dari musuh klan mereka. Namun, takdir Qin Shan berbeda dari siapapun. Ia memiliki empat garis darah ilahi—Naga Petir, Matahari, Bulan, dan Bintang—dan empat dantian sejak lahir. Segel darahnya membuatnya tampak biasa di mata orang lain, sampai suatu hari ia menemukan harta peninggalan pendekar kuno. Di situlah ia mendapatkan dua warisan yang akan mengubah hidupnya: Kultivasi Semesta, teknik misterius yang bisa menyedot energi dari segala arah. Kultivasi Fisik Dewa Perang, jalan keras untuk menempa tubuh menjadi wadah yang tak tergoyahkan. Namun kekuatan besar datang dengan harga besar. Untuk melangkah satu tingkat kecil saja, Qin Shan membutuhkan lima kali lebih banyak sumber daya daripada kultivator biasa. Apa yang bagi orang lain cukup untuk satu sekte besar, baginya hanyalah langkah kecil. Qin Shan tak gentar. Dengan Batu Teratai Ilahi yang menyatu dengan tubuhnya—sebuah dunia mini yang bisa ditinggali manusia, ditanami herbal, dan kelak menjadi surga kultivasi—ia mulai menapaki jalan penuh darah dan pengorbanan. Musuh-musuh yang tamak datang satu per satu. Dari perantau hina, sekte kecil, hingga penguasa galaksi. Namun di tiap pertarungan, Qin Shan bukan hanya berjuang untuk bertahan, tapi juga menguat, melampaui batas, dan menorehkan jalannya sendiri. Dari galaksi terendah, ia akan menantang langit, menembus sembilan galaksi, dan melangkah ke dunia surgawi, dunia Dao, hingga dunia Tao. Dengan empat garis darah ilahi, tubuh surgawi, mata ilahi, dan tekad baja—nama Qin Shan akan mengguncang semua dunia.
