***He is on the path to godhood, but how can one become a god, when the devil sleeps inside of him?***
Lin Feng is an orphan, whose spirit vein shattered at birth, leaving him the laughingstock of his backwater village. Barely surviving as a scavenger, he stumbles across a dying cultivator who forces a cursed jade pendant onto him before exploding into ash. The pendant fuses with his soul, revealing a forbidden cultivation technique—the Deity Path—rumored to have driven its last user into darkness. As Lin Feng begins cultivating, he discovers his broken spirit vein isn’t a defect but a seal hiding a chaotic bloodline tied to a banished god. His rise starts slow, mastering volatile elemental arts and outsmarting local thugs, but twists pile up fast: the pendant’s power comes with a price. 
Forming a shaky alliance with a rogue alchemist and a disgraced sect princess, Lin Feng claws his way up the cultivation ranks, only to learn his bloodline makes him a target for the Five Heavenly Clans, who guard a secret.
Now hunted by clans, and wrestling with a fractured mind, he uncovers the final twist: the banished god in his blood isn’t dead—it’s awakening inside him, and it wants control. Lin Feng must outwit divine conspiracies, defy his own nature, and shatter the heavens to claim godhood—or lose himself entirely.

Journey To Deity

Lin Feng yanked his hand away from Scar's grip. "It's just dirt."

He snatched the black cloth away from Scar and started tying his hand up again.

Scar stepped back, staring at Lin Feng. The boy was simply getting even stranger by the day.

Lin Feng was done with every chore given to him a short time, to the amazement of Scar who had taken the 'watch over him' job to another level. His presence was starting to annoy Feng.

Lin Feng remembered the old man, it was about time they were supposed to meet. He needed to get out of here, bit Scar definitely wouldn't let him. He needed a distraction.

Lin Feng raised his hand, staring at the black cloth that hid the tattoo.

"What's that? You planning something...rat?" Scar berated, looking him over.

Lin Feng didn't even take a glance at Scar. "Should I just knock him out?" However, that would be worsening matters. What happens when he gets back? Scar would definitely tell the Matron.

Scar was instantly irritated, being ignored by someone who he considered below him.

"Hey...Rat!" Scar swung his fists at Feng, but Lin Feng was quick to react, he threw his hand forward quickly, blocking the attack.

However, he didn't use his right hand, so he didn't receive any boost from the tattoo. And without it, Scar was significantly stronger than he was.

Lin Feng stumbled backwards and fell to the floor, rolling.

Scar swung his wrist slightly, feeling better. "How weak...you are indeed a rat."

Lin Feng stood up, staring at Scar. "You aren't even a cultivator."

Scar's eyes widened and his face flushed red in embarrassment. He had lied to everyone that he was a cultivator, trying to hide the fact that he wasn't. So he had worked out repeatedly, building muscle mass and taking potions, so that he would be stronger than most normal people.

When he landed the attack just now, Lin Feng was able to tell. He didn't feel the same power that came when the drunken man had attacked him. Scar's attack had been a purely physical one, unattributed to any elements.

Scar tried to defend himself, but the words just weren't forthcoming. He was busted, as clear as that. It even made the matter worst when it was Lin Feng, the one who he had always bullied that found him out.

Lin Feng walked towards him, a cold expression on his face.

Scar gulped as he watched the boy walking towards him. What was Lin Feng going to do?

"Is this how my stay at the orphanage ended?"

Scar suddenly dropped to the floor as Lin Feng approached him, he bowed and clutched Feng's leg. "Please don't tell Mrs Matron, please! I would do anything you ask of me!"

Lin Feng was amused. He felt an irresistible urge to laugh out loud, however, he couldn't do that. He was supposed to look cool and overbearing right now, a smile would spoil it all.

Lin Feng placed a hand on Scar's shoulder, causing the enforcer to look up at him. Lin Feng was surprised to see tears on Scar's face already, but he played it cool.

"So he loves this place that much, huh?" Lin Feng thought inwardly.

But then again, why wouldn't Scar love the orphanage so much? It was the only place he got to feel important.

"You would be my lackey." Lin Feng said, catching Scar by surprise.

Scar was expecting Lin Feng to ask for money or beat him up as payback or stuff like that. However, Lin Feng had no desire for such things. His mind was on the bigger picture.

He needed someone to cover up for him when he had to leave and meet the old man, he would be even more busy from now, so kicking Scar out would only hinder his plans. They would do more harm than good.

Scar looked up at Feng, tears in his eyes. "I would! I would!"

Then he bent down again, hugging Feng's legs. "Thank you so much!!"

Lin Feng raised a brow, his face a mixture of both embarrassment and confusion. His face flushed red. "Well, that was easy."
