Ye An'an, born into poverty, is admitted to the Xuantian Sect as an exception because of her pure Wood Spirit Root. But she unexpectedly discovers that the legendary Aoki Sacred Body lies dormant within her, drawing the covetous attention of those lurking in the sect's shadows. Li Jintian, the sect master's son, is extraordinarily talented but rebellious and unruly. From adversaries, the two become allies, gradually uncovering a conspiracy spanning three hundred years: the truth behind the Aoki Clan's destruction, an ancient will lying dormant within a sacred mark, and a resurrection plot that uses Ye An'an as a pawn.
When a rebellion erupts within the sect and mortal danger closes in, Ye An'an and Li Jintian are forced to flee. From the forbidden lands of Xuantian to the Northern Dark Snowfields, from the Tree of Life to ancient secret realms, they awaken the power of their bloodlines in dire circumstances, only to discover that the true enemy is far closer than they imagined. When they must choose between protection and sacrifice, can they defy fate and fight their way to survival amid sectarian strife and an ancient conspiracy?
