In Qingshi Town, where spiritual energy is thin, Lin Chen, the son of Orion, was originally an ordinary boy, but he caused a storm in the triennial spiritual root test - the spiritual bead suddenly bloomed with colorful rays of light, and then fell silent again. He was judged to be the poorest miscellaneous spiritual root, and became the object of everyone's pity or ridicule. However, the mysterious black jade pendant left by his father quietly awakened, not only helping him break through to the first level of Qi refining overnight, but also buried a secret in his body that subverted his cognition.
In order to find out the truth about his father's disappearance and to explore the origin of his own abnormality, Lin Chen entered the Lihuo Sect, the largest sect within a thousand miles, as a handyman disciple. Within the sect, the hierarchy is strict, resources are skewed, and his origin as a miscellaneous spirit makes him suffer bullying; outside the sect, monsters are rampant, evil cultivators are dormant, and dangers are everywhere. However, Lin Chen relied on the ancient inheritance hidden in the jade pendant and his perseverance to survive in the predicament step by step: he understood the true meaning of basic mental methods at the handyman's office, obtained natural materials and earthly treasures in the sect's secret realm, and fought against powerful enemies with the help of his unexpectedly awakened special physique.
As his cultivation grew, Lin Chen discovered that the spiritual root phenomenon was no accident. Behind the black jade pendant was the secret of the rise and fall of the ancient gods. His father's disappearance was also closely related to a dark force that attempted to subvert the Qingming Continent. He made close friends with different personalities, encountered powerful opponents who were both good and evil, and uncovered the century-old conspiracy hidden by the Lihuo Sect in repeated life and death tests. From a down-and-out young man in a remote town to a powerful immortal cultivator who stirred up the mainland, Lin Chen used his spiritual roots to break the shackles of destiny and write a passionate legend about inheritance, perseverance and resistance.
