Whenever there is a turmoil of extraordinary power in the world, he can obtain forbidden power from the prisoners in Tiandao Prison to deal with the crisis... As extraordinary events occur again and again, Ling Tianshu gradually discovers that there is an ancient evil god hidden among the prisoners who is trying to seize the power of Tiandao, and he has become a key part of his conspiracy.
