Black Stone Immortal Fate

Without a spiritual root, you're nothing but a mortal—destined to grovel in the dirt forever. That's what they told Chen Ping. The Immortal Masters dismissed him. The village bullies crushed him underfoot. He believed them all. Until a mysterious black stone awakened within him, carving an impossible path where none should exist—a heaven-defying cultivation road built for those the world cast aside. Now, years later, those same bullies who mocked his worthless roots kneel trembling before him. "What kind of monster are you?" Chen Ping's smile is cold. "Me? Just a rootless nobody."
