Seeking Immortality

The vast land of China, a land that has existed for who knows how long, is infested with monsters and beasts, and has a harsh climate. Since ancient times, countless powerful beings have been fighting all day for limited resources and space for survival. But even these powerful beings seem insignificant in front of the power of heaven and earth.

At some point, whether it was natural evolution or the unintentional masterpiece of a certain immortal, humans were born.

Compared to those monsters and races that have existed since ancient times, human power seems insignificant, but they have amazing learning and creative abilities. Humans have learned to make fire, weave nets, plant crops, and build houses, and have won a living space in this harsh living environment with insignificant power.

But human desires are endless. After solving the problems of survival and food and clothing, in the spirit of man conquering nature, countless talented people began to work towards a new goal, that is - eternal life.

Since the birth of mankind, they have been very envious of the powerful abilities and long life of those races that have existed since ancient times. After tens of thousands of years of exploration and learning, humans finally have their own systematic exercises, using their own bodies as a small world, absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth to train themselves.

Although only a very small number of people have enough talent to practice these exercises, and they are far from being able to achieve immortality, they also allow those who can practice to live for many more years on the basis of a hundred years of life. As for personal strength, it has reached the point of weeping ghosts and gods, and when practiced to the extreme, they can even compete with those ancient races.

Although there are more and more masters and great powers among humans who practice the true secrets of exercises, humans are more and more determined to monopolize the vast land of Shenzhou. Finally, with the concerted efforts of everyone, those ancient races were either sealed or expelled, and this continent finally began to be dominated by humans. Although there are still monsters attacking human gatherings from time to time, in general, human society has begun to develop peacefully and stably under the leadership of practitioners. And this land also began to be called the vast land of Shenzhou by humans at this time.

As for the very few humans who can practice the techniques, they are called immortal cultivators, or demon cultivators, collectively known as cultivators, and are worshipped by ordinary humans for generations. They are divided into righteous and demonic sects and different sects based on their different understandings of the truth of heaven and earth, different attitudes, and different mindsets. After humans occupied the vast land of China, the various sects of both good and evil began endless internal struggles without external worries, which were even more tragic than the struggles with various ancient races.

As time went by, the cultivators gradually forgot how powerful those ancient races were. And would these ancient races really be willing to let the vast land of China be enjoyed exclusively by humans?

Our story begins with a sect of immortal cultivators called Jiuhuamen.
