Immortal Defiance: Eight Centuries of Ascension

Scorned as worthless, bullied for his humble birth—Ye Chen refused to accept his fate. Armed with nothing but iron will and a burning defiance against the heavens, he clawed his way through eight brutal centuries of cultivation. From Qi Refining's grueling foundations to the legendary Mahayana realm, every breakthrough came at the cost of blood, betrayal, and near-death trials. But ascending to the Immortal Realm was only the beginning. In this merciless new world, even gods must fight to survive, and Ye Chen's greatest battles still lie ahead.
