Against Heaven: From Mortal to Ascension

Wen Yu possesses an exceptionally pure spiritual root, with a calm and decisive mind, rational above all, never fearing the powerful nor coveting fame. Rising from a humble mortal background, he calculates every move with precision, strikes ruthlessly, and overwhelms enemies beyond his level. Upon entering Qingxuan Sect, he is targeted by the elders and thrown into a deadly demon tide. But what others fear as a death trap is merely a stepping stone for him to crush obstacles, plunder resources, and rapidly break through realms. His path to defying heaven begins now! — Description from novelcodex.org
