The Cat That Crawls Heaven's Wall

Wei Mao was born with the cursed Ghost Cat Constitution — a rare demonic bloodline that allows him to walk on vertical walls, see in absolute darkness, and move with silence that defies nature. Branded a demon-spawn by the cultivation world, he was cast out of every sect he sought entry to. Surviving as a wall-scrubbing servant in the lowly outer halls of Crescent Moon Sect, Wei Mao discovers an ancient manuscript sealed within the very stone he was ordered to clean — the Nine Lives Immortal Scripture, a legendary cultivation technique once wielded by the Shadowcat Demon Sovereign, a being who shook the heavens ten thousand years ago. With nine stages of cultivation, each granting him a new "life" of power, Wei Mao begins his silent ascent. But the higher he climbs, the more dangerous the world becomes. The five great sects hunger for the scripture. A mysterious woman dressed in white seems to know his every move before he makes it. And deep in the ruins of the ancient demon realm, something ancient and ravenous has sensed his bloodline stirring. They called him a stray cat clinging to walls. He would show them what it means to reach the heavens.
