About World of Cultivation
Zuo Mo is an outer disciple with no cultivation talent and a face disfigured by an accident. When he finds a mysterious sword spirit, he begins a path that involves military strategy, sect management, and becoming a power that the cultivation world cannot ignore. Fang Xiang is known for unusually deep world-building and genuine consequences — characters who die stay dead.
