Lin Chen, a handyman disciple of the Qingyun Sect, was born with damaged spiritual meridians and could absorb less than a tenth of the spiritual energy an ordinary person could.
After three years of bitter cultivation, he was still stuck at the first level of Qi Refining. Bullied by his fellow disciples, he became the laughingstock of the entire sect.
When danger struck in the back mountains and he was on the brink of death, he accidentally uncovered the truth about himself: he wasn't spiritually crippled, but had been born with the Devouring Spirit Dao Body!
Spirit herbs, pills, spirit stones, magical artifacts, fragments of ancient formations, demon beast cores... Anything containing spiritual energy was devoured the moment he touched it and turned to his own use.
Others toiled for ten years to break through a single realm; he reached the peak by devouring a single spirit herb.
Others risked their lives to obtain heavenly treasures; everywhere he went, all spiritual life was left empty, and his cultivation soared without pause.
From a lowly handyman everyone could bully, to a heaven-blessed prodigy renowned throughout the sect, and then to a Devouring Spirit Venerable who ruled the world.
Lin Chen defies heaven with every step. All who once humiliated, bullied, or abandoned me will eventually bow before me!
I will tread across the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, devour the spiritual essence of the myriad Dao, and become the Devouring Spirit Dao Venerable!
