Xie Yinchuan is heir to the Celestial Master tradition. His parents vanished twenty years ago, and he was fortunate to be taken in by Daoist Xuanyang, under whose tutelage he spent twenty years cultivating on Mount Mao. Upon reaching adulthood, he descends the mountain carrying the Celestial Master legacy and returns to Jinling. There, he takes over the Xie family health clinic left behind by his parents while investigating the truth behind their disappearance.
The Soul-Usurping Sect commits evil by stealing souls to refine sinister arts, stirring hidden currents throughout Jinling. Armed with artifacts such as the Soul Bottle, Soul-Quelling Bell, and Seven-Star Sword, and with his mastery of Celestial Master techniques, Xie Yinchuan averts crises and helps innocent people plagued by evil spirits. Cold and taciturn, yet driven by a sense of justice, he uses the health clinic as his base and advances carefully at every step along the path of revenge.
