In the Tianyuan Continent, where strength rules, Chen Xuan is a young orphan from Qingyan Town who suffers constant bullying but dreams of becoming a martial arts powerhouse. After a chance encounter, the remnant soul of an ancient Martial Saint passes its legacy on to him. Armed with the top-tier cultivation manual, Chaos Martial Canon, his strength soars, stunning the whole town.
To break through a cultivation bottleneck, Chen Xuan ventures into Chaos Valley. There, he rescues Su Yao, a disciple of the Liuyun Sect who bears a Chaos Pearl and is under attack by Blackwind Stronghold. After resisting the temptation of the pearl, he returns with Su Yao to the Liuyun Sect, where he finds the Chaos Concealment Art in the library and goes into seclusion to break through.
But just then, Blackwind Stronghold joins forces with several other factions to attack the Liuyun Sect, bringing a crisis to the sect. Having gained immense strength through a fortuitous encounter, can Chen Xuan turn the tide and forge his own legend in this world where strength rules?
