On the Qianyuan Continent, spiritual root aptitude determines everything.
Three years ago, Lin Feng was a once-in-a-generation genius. His spiritual root test had blazed with golden light.
Overnight, his cultivation was completely crippled, his spiritual root withered, and he became the sect's laughingstock.
Every day, he was punished by tempering his body in a frigid pool. The icy water gnawed at his bones, yet he could not gather even a trace of spiritual energy.
When his three-year sentence ended, his spiritual root had vanished completely on the testing platform.
Before the entire sect, an elder announced, "Lin Feng, you're nothing but a cripple. You're expelled from the sect effective today!"
Amid wind and snow, Lin Feng crushed a jade pendant, pain stinging his palm.
No one knew that the broken soul slumbering inside the pendant had finally awakened: "Kid, want revenge? Your spiritual root wasn't crippled... It was parasitized by 'it.'"
