Shen Cangyuan, the legitimate son of a famous family in his previous life and a genius in the world of cultivation, died due to the betrayal and conspiracy of his close relatives. Before his soul dissipated, he was selected by the mysterious system and reborn as an ordinary disciple of a small sect in the wilderness. Carrying an 'equivalent exchange' system, he must pay a price to gain power. Entering the dangerous world of cultivation for the first time, Shen Cangyuan makes his way step by step, making friends with Liu Qingge and Bai Ling. He supports but also has conflicts with his senior brother Mo Xuanchen. At the same time, he faces hostile forces inside and outside the sect, Ren Wushuang, and his former enemy Xun Sheng. In the midst of multi-person intrigues, overt and covert struggles, intertwined opportunities and misfortune, Shen Cangyuan gradually uncovers the truth about his rebirth, and gradually moves towards the center of the whirlpool of destiny. In the test of blood and fire, he not only needs to complete his revenge, but also find his true self, reach reconciliation with the world, and finally become the leader on the chessboard.
