Dao Forge: Legacy of the Heavenhammer

Everyone dreams of awakening. Few survive the path that follows.



Reborn from Earth into a distant world where every cultivator binds with a living warship, Jin Taixuan is the overlooked heir of a disgraced branch family. In a clan where 1 in 10 awakens, he defies fate and bonds with a mysterious warship known only as the Heavenhammer — a vessel that hides more power than he dares reveal.



But in a realm where talent brings enemies and glory paints a target, Taixuan chooses caution over fame. He hides his strength, masks his ship’s true nature, and walks a silent path — watching, learning, and growing stronger in the shadows.



As his small clan begins its rise back to the main family, secrets emerge:



His grandfather’s exile hides a deeper truth.



His clan’s rank is just the beginning.



And his ship may be tied to an era long before the current age of warships.





In a world of starry seas, immortal engines, and cultivation through battle, only the wise endure.



A slow-burn progression. No shortcuts. No chosen-one harem. Just fire, steel, and the rise of a legend — forged quietly beneath it all.
