The trailer

Your techniques strike on their own; you move, dash out of trouble and aim the directional ones with the mouse or right stick.

  • 20-minute runs: bosses at 5, 10 and 15 minutes, a final boss at 20
  • Heavenly Tribulation lightning strikes from minute 3
  • No auto-aim, and a quick dash when the crowd closes in

Every Breakthrough adds a technique or a Treasure to your build. Max a technique, pair it with its Treasure, open a chest, and it evolves.

  • 46 techniques, each with its own evolution
  • 12 Dao Fusions: two evolutions merge into a single technique
  • Carry six techniques, or stake everything on one

"You're courting death!"

  • "You dare?!"

    He picks the fight

    If you've read a cultivation novel, you've met him: the arrogant Young Master. In Courting Death he's a recurring rival. Every line is his.

  • "Seeking death!"

    He runs

    Fail to beat him in time and he slips away. He remembers you, and the second time he's angrier and stronger.

  • "Kowtow and apologize!"

    His father comes

    Humble him twice and his father, the Sect Elder, comes to settle the score.

  • "Your eyes cannot see the mountain before you!"

    Then walk into his sect

    The Proud Heaven Sect is a walled maze where, from minute 3, the Sword-Stream Array floods the streets with blades.

Climb seven realms, from the Bamboo Forest to the maze of the Proud Heaven Sect and the Edge of Creation, and look for the hidden ones.

  1. Bamboo Forest
  2. Mountains
  3. Proud Heaven Sect
  4. Burning Sands
  5. Northern Frost Wastes
  6. Sea of Stars
  7. Edge of Creation
