I'm a Rune Engraver—Is Carrying a Knife With Me Really Reasonable?

[Male Lead Is Ruthless] [Single Female Lead] [Myth and Legends] [Non-Relaxed Leveling Story] [Not an Invincible System]

The vast ocean hides the passage of time, and the great Dao buries all dust.

In a boundless age of upheaval, all living beings turn to corpses.

When the myths of the past are buried in the dust of history.

When the great Dao of this world imposes restrictions, making human cultivation difficult and leaving no path ahead.

Before them, the sages of old gave their lives for righteousness, reversing the Dao to open the first road.

After them, later generations laid plans across ten thousand ages, all for a sliver of hope.

Thus began the path of cultivation for humanity!

From then on, humans developed law patterns for cultivation.

Xu Shen, as a youth from the lowest starting point, picks up a black blade and walks into this boundless chaotic world.

He uses the blade to carve patterns, shapes patterns with his body, uses patterns to lead him toward the Dao, and by the Dao... steps into the Vast Ocean!

He moves forward step by step, uncovering layers upon layers of confusion.

Earth Star, the starry sky, all beings, and the whole world stand as enemies—so what?

Heaven does not allow it—so what should he fear?

He cultivates the patterns within himself and comprehends the Dao amid life and death.

When my Netherlight shines across the heavens, when the Vast Ocean opens, all beings will come!

In the long years, within the shadowy light of the underworld, someone is smiling softly.

"Everything... is in the boundless expanse in my palm."
