Chu Chen was born in Cangyun Village. When he was young, a mysterious force killed his parents, and the villagers who tried to protect him were slaughtered as well. Chu Chen was rescued by Mo Chenzi, a wandering cultivator who happened to pass by. Mo Chenzi took him to the outer sect of Qingyun Sect, but Chu Chen’s mixed and chaotic spiritual roots made it impossible to formally take him as a disciple, so he could only make him a servant. At Qingyun Sect, Chu Chen was bullied by the outer sect disciples, but through sheer perseverance, he secretly learned cultivation techniques in the woodshed. By chance, he also discovered a mysterious jade pendant containing the remnant soul of an ancient powerhouse, who began guiding him in a unique cultivation method.
