In an Eastern fantasy world, Lu Chen was once the hope of his clan. But at his coming-of-age ceremony, he was found to have a mixed spiritual root, and Lin Qingxue, the genius young woman of the Qingyun Sect, came to break off their engagement. Her cold words at the rejection ceremony struck like a thunderbolt. His mother fell ill, and the shame brought upon his family sent him from heaven to hell. Demoted to a menial sect servant, Lu Chen unexpectedly activated the "Low-Profile Sign-In System." By signing in at abandoned places nobody cared about, such as heaps of medicinal dregs and garbage dumps, he gained purified incomplete cultivation manuals and low-grade pills, quietly growing stronger.
Though he seemed like a good-for-nothing, Lu Chen was no such thing. He was the reincarnation of a mighty expert from a past life, with his bloodline sealed and his talents destined to bloom late. He worked quietly by day and diligently tempered his body by night. Mastering multiple professions such as alchemy, formations, and artifact forging, Lu Chen fought his way up from the servant quarters. He defeated his mockers in the outer sect tournament and stumbled upon an ancient inheritance in an inner sect secret realm. He face-slapped Lin Qingxue and her family at every turn: first humiliating their underlings, then defeating their peers, and finally exposing the conspiracy behind the broken engagement. He befriended the straightforward Jiang Wu, took the quirky alchemy disciple Liu Qing'er under his wing, and gradually developed real feelings for the aloof, high-ranking female cultivator Xiao Lengyue, despite their fake-couple arrangement.
After leaving the sect to gain experience, he established a pill merchant guild, awakened his bloodline, and made a great leap in strength. Soaring to the upper realm and battling beyond its borders, Lu Chen retraced the path of the Supreme Immortal Emperor and shattered the rules of cultivation. In the final showdown against the mastermind, he joined his beloved women and brothers to protect his homeland and reach the pinnacle!
