Ever since it was discovered that he couldn't cultivate, Darian Wind Dance has been ostracized by his clan. At best they ignore him, and at worst they treat him with contempt and disdain. One fateful day, after being beaten and left in the middle of the woods, Darian encounters a cat spirit beast who makes him the offer of a lifetime. He is given the chance to inherit an Immortal's legacy, a chance that most cultivators would kill for. When he says yes, despite the risks, Darian becomes a cultivator and starts down his path towards immortality.

However, the further he travels along this path, the more he realizes that things he had taken for granted aren't as true as he previously believed. He discovers secrets related to his origin, and learns that there is an existing connection between him and the Immortal whose legacy he inherited. More than that, he discovers that there is a darkness lurking within the depths of his soul. If he isn't careful, that darkness may very well consume him.

Just a fair warning, this one is a slow-burning, character-driven story.

New chapters will be published on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
