Chen Xuan was originally the gravekeeper at the bottom of the "Mass Tomb" in Qingming Mountain. He was responsible for cleaning up the corpses and repairing the tombstones every day. He was regarded as an "unlucky ghost" by his peers. One day when he was burying a mysterious female corpse, he accidentally triggered the "All Souls Devouring System" - killing enemies can devour them. Its cultivation level: Properly burying the deceased can absorb the secret treasures in the corpse; fulfilling the unfinished wishes of the deceased, and making use of his lifetime connections for his own use. With the help of the system, Chen Xuan started to counterattack from the bottom: first devouring the outer disciples who bullied him, his cultivation level increased sharply; and then he replaced the miserable ones.
The dead swordsman fulfilled the last wish of the "hand-blade traitor" and received the secret support of the thirty Nascent Soul old monsters he had befriended throughout his life. He later rescued the hunted peerless fairy Su Qingyao and hired her to work with her by devouring the treasures obtained by her enemies. However, Xiao Zhan, who had wiped out his whole family and pretended to be the "leader of the righteous path", after discovering Chen Xuan's threat, gathered nine sects to encircle and suppress him. However, Chen Xuan devoured the "Xuanxiao Divine Body" and "Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion" thousand-year veins he had accumulated throughout his life.
In the end, Chen Xuan proved the way of "swallowing" and became the youngest "Spirit Swallowing Emperor" in Jiuchongtian.
