In the year 721 of the Great Wilderness, it had been more than a hundred years since the Yellow Emperor became an immortal. The alliance between the five races collapsed and the world was in turmoil. The central Qilin Cliff opened up an abyss, and the "turbid spirit energy" leaked out in the aftermath of chaos. The creatures were alienated and the ferocious beasts went crazy. However, it also gave birth to the "Qilin Yu" who could empathize with the beasts. He was denounced by the five tribes as a "turbid spirit evil species" and they must be eliminated as soon as possible.
Shi Lin, an orphan from Yushou Village, was abandoned at the foot of Qilin Cliff since he was a child. He carries a mysterious animal bone engraved with the "Lin Sutra" and is born with the "Lin Heart" divine treasure - this is not only the inheritance mark of Yulin, but also the original sin of being hunted. During the siege of the Tu tribe, he accidentally met Xuan Haozi, the great shaman of the Qianmu tribe, who was hiding in the world. Only then did he realize that he was not an "evil spirit" and that the power of Linxin was actually the way of protection left by Shi Qilin.
As the seal of Qilin Cliff loosened, foreign forces used Zhuo Ling to spy on the wilderness. The hypocritical Fire Tribe High Priest Cang Jin secretly colluded with foreign enemies and incited the five tribes in the name of "eliminating the Zhuo" in an attempt to seize control of Linxin and the upper realm passage. Shi Lin studied Taoism under his master and practiced the method of "seed by one's body" in the "Lin Sutra". Starting from the blood-moving realm, he gradually opened up caves and transformed spirit inscriptions. He met Ling Yue, the descendant of the medical witch in Qingqiu Mountain, made allies of the Jin tribe in the Kunlun Ruins, saw the sacrifice of the Shui tribe in Xuanming Ze, and gradually uncovered the secrets of Yu Lin's origins and the conspiracy of the foreign land.
He not only wants to clear away the blood feud in Yushou Village and break the prejudice that "turbid spirits are evil", but also uses Linxin as a guide to unite the power of the five tribes to stop the foreign army and seal Qilin Yayuan. On this road, there are ferocious beasts blocking the road, fratricide killing each other, beauties accompanying each other, and masters and apprentices protecting each other. Shi Lin will eventually forge the road with his flesh and blood, becoming the guardian connecting the lower world and the upper world, and writing a new chapter in the wilderness where humans, spirits, and beasts coexist.
