In the vast and mysterious spiritual continent, the strong are respected and there are constant disputes between forces. Lin Yu, a young man from Qingfeng Town, whose parents died early and lives with his grandfather, has had a dream of practicing cultivation since he was a child. By chance, everyone from the Qingyun Sect came to Qingfeng Town to search for spiritual veins. Lin Yu met Liu Xuan and showed extraordinary courage in the crisis caused by the abnormal movement of the spiritual veins. He received the help of Qingfengzi and then embarked on a journey to the Qingyun Sect.
In Qingyun Sect, Lin Yu passed the entrance test through his own efforts and became an outer disciple. However, the competition in the outer sect was fierce, and he encountered difficulties from Wang Qiang and others. Fortunately, with the help of Liu Xuan, he obtained the "Qingfeng Sword Art" and practiced it in Lingquan in the back mountain, which greatly increased his strength. He won the duel with Zhou Yun in the competition and became famous.
Later, Lin Yu learned that the ancient artifact Qiankun Sword was sealed in the Qingyun Sect's forbidden area. Because the Qiankun Sword was coveted by evil forces, the seal was loosened. He ventured into the forbidden area and was followed by Zhou Yun. Although the two misunderstood first, they chose to join forces to fight when the seal of the Qiankun Sword broke and the man in black robe appeared to snatch the sword. At the critical moment, Qingfengzi arrived, and everyone worked together to successfully purify the Qiankun Sword and reseal it. Lin Yu and Zhou Yun became inner disciples due to their merit.
However, the situation in the Linghuan Continent suddenly changed. The Blood Demon Palace, together with the Earth Demon Sect, Yinfeng Valley and other evil forces rose up, grabbing resources everywhere and targeting the Qingyun Sect's spiritual veins. The Qingyun Sect and the Blood Demon Palace fought fiercely. Lin Yu performed bravely in guarding the spiritual veins and the sect battle. He fought against the master of the Blood Demon Palace and made great contributions to the sect's victory. He was taught the "Qiankun Hunyuan Gong" by Master Xuanfeng.
