A raging fire devoured the world of the Ancients. Where once great cities stood, now there's nothing but ruins submerged in the sand. But even in this endless wasteland, there's a place for life and hope. However, those who find new life here value nothing other than strength.

Enjoying his childhood, he paid no attention to the world, its secrets, or to those around him. Little did he know that his ignorance would be his undoing. Now, as an outcast looked down upon everyone, he has to endure humiliation as he stares into the eyes of the one who took everything from him. Life had taught him that the strong wouldn't hesitate to stab the weak in the back.

But what if he became one of the strong? How much power would it take to avenge his father's death? How much power would he need to bleed dry the bastard that took everything from him? Would the others learn their lesson, or would they, too, seek to get their revenge?

To be clear I can not wait until book 2 hits. A non traditional wuxia/cultivation novel.

Exciting Book

Loved it, hard to put down, now I want to listen to the next one.

Great book

the story here has a lot of potential but needs some serious editing. There are many gaps where things don't add up. Also the continual jump between adult actions and kids actions for the main character don't mesh well in an 11 year old who continually out performs easily those around him.

Had potential but: Needs Editing

This is a 3.5 in my opinion. The story line is good but the main character is hard to get into. The progression in cultivation is poorly explained and the main characters blood lust is over written and erratic (gotta kill everyone 2 sentences later holding a grudge prevents progress. Going to stab them in the heart…)

The audiobook covers for a lot of sins

The story wasn’t bad, but it was a teen high school drama in a different setting.



It’s a cultivation novel with a different perspective. Interesting concept that I’d like to see further developed.

I got this book free as part of the audible plus catalog. I will not be getting the next book in the series - I can’t justify spending the money on it. It wasn’t good enough.

Too much teen drama

Title says it all! I want them all to suffer a horrible death due to their stupidity!

MC and his family are all cowardly POS

Not enjoyable at all, this is a one n done for me.
...The writing isn't bad, and the narration is pretty good

The story is not engaging though, MC doesn't inspire any desire to care. I just can't get invested ...can't get into it.
If you don't care about what's happening, then there's no reason to continue reading.

12 hours of bullying n not much else
