Beyond the Veil of Mortality

His parents vanished and his village was obliterated. Thankfully for him, the Immortal Sect welcomed him through the mountain gate. Alas, his feeble spiritual roots were scorned by others, and even the master who took him in was ridiculed. That same master presented him with a damaged tome, insisting it was an ancient secret scroll. Regrettably, he endured countless humiliations when his reputation as a failure was exposed. Then, upon a chance return home, he discovered that the stone jar he had picked up in childhood possessed a mysterious power. This revelation marked the start of an entirely new life for him.
