Shanhai Hidden Ruins: Sightless Gaze at Heaven, Season 3
Blind youngster Li Guanqi is adopted by the mysterious Su Xuan, enters Great Xia Sword Sect at fourteen, and rises quickly on a saint-grade thunder spiritual root and a sword spirit hidden in his sword case. At the Hundred Sects Tournament he fights for his sect, withstands Golden Core opponents, defeats a run of experts, and proposes a grueling rotating challenge against ten late-Foundation-Establishment disciples, lifting his low-ranked sect to the top of the points table. When junior sister Yu Sui'an is abducted and tortured to the brink of death by Ziyang Hall disciples, he raids the enemy camp at night, kills the culprit, and sends word of his withdrawal from the sect so it will not be implicated. In the Fuyou Mountains he duels Zhao Beichen, opens the sword case for the first time to summon the Red Lotus Divine Sword, breaks through mid-battle, and forcibly endures the nine-thunder Golden Core tribulation; before the tribulation clouds disperse, he charges into another person's tribulation zone for a death fight that ends undecided.
