Qiong Yezhi was born with damaged spiritual meridians and has survived only thanks to her family's spiritual medicine. She calculated that she would not live to see her next birthday. In despair, she uncovered the secret hidden in her ancestral jade pendant: only by joining the Qingyun Sect of Kunlun Ruins could she use other people's lifespans to make up for her own deficiencies. Sick and frail, she traveled thousands of miles and dealt with the mysterious Tingfeng Pavilion, securing a slim chance to enter the sect. But on the day of the selection, the immortal examiner seated high among the clouds looked up. He was none other than the “mortal” she had accidentally caught secretly trading with the master of Tingfeng Pavilion the night before.
