Spirit Martial Nine Heavens

Spirit Martial Nine Heavens is a long fantasy combat novel by the web author Yese Fangzhe, first serialized on Qidian around 2010; Taiwan's Mingxian Culture began publishing traditional-Chinese volume editions in 2010. The book runs about 2.43 million characters and over eight hundred chapters. The story begins thus: Lin Dong, originally an ordinary man, after two cycles of reincarnation unexpectedly arrives in the Nine Heavens Continent, his soul landing in Han Fei, a collateral descendant of the Han family in the Minglan Kingdom, and from then on he lives anew as Han Fei. The Nine Heavens Continent is a vast otherworld where many intelligent races coexist—humans, beastfolk, heaven-spirit folk, barbarians, sea folk, dragons and demons; warriors wield battle aura, mages cast spells with mana, and there are also creator-smiths who forge spirit weapons. Power levels run from martial apprentice and martial warrior through martial master all the way to Earth Warrior, Ocean Warrior, Sky Warrior and finally the Silent-Annihilation Martial God. Han Fei carries the Profound Gate Life-and-Death Art from his previous life; arranged by his father, he enters a workshop to study under the creator-smith Teng Tuohai, befriends the young mage Teng Shuixiu, and through talent and hard training breaks through to become a true warrior, then is drawn into family intrigue, territory management and kingdom strife, climbing ever upward through challenge after challenge. He gradually tames the battle pet Zhuifeng and the war beast Korodo, and through an inherited spirit crystal forms a bond with the legendary king Night Martial Emperor from a thousand years past, ultimately facing with his companions the threat of the Servants of God and the demon invasion. Centered on battle-aura combat, the book blends classic elements—transmigration and rebirth, monster-slaying and leveling up, faction warfare—and builds grand settings such as the Abyss World and the Sky City, making it a typical hot-blooded coming-of-age Eastern fantasy epic.
