Minh Cảnh was a born sword cultivator, discovering her sword bone and immense talent from a young age, perfectly suited for the path of the sword. As the chief disciple of the Myriad Manifestations Dao Sect, her extraordinary talent and rocket-like cultivation speed made her the favored child of the Heavenly Dao. She was the top contender in the Spirit Battle Assembly, destined to inherit and represent the righteous path—the light and hope of all. However, this peerless genius was suddenly accused of colluding with the Demonic Race. Her entire cultivation was shattered, her meridians and spiritual roots severed, and she was brutally pushed off a cliff. On the brink of death, Minh Cảnh heard a mysterious voice. It revealed that she was merely cannon fodder in a "chasing-wife crematorium" plot, and her fall was just the opening act. The voice explained that she was meant to fall into a thousand-year-old cold pond, her body carried by an underground current to a dark cave. Her corpse would then serve as a catalyst for the cave's master to break a seal, thereby initiating the protagonist's "chasing-wife crematorium" plot involving the Dao Venerable of the Myriad Manifestations Dao Sect.
