In Xuanshui Village, a remote village in Douluo Continent, young Mu Chen has had an inexplicable bond with the stream since he was a child. There is an unknown secret hidden under his short dark blue hair. When his martial soul awakened at the age of six, he met Su Ling'er, a girl who was misunderstood because her parents sacrificed themselves to fight against the soul beast. The two innocent souls were bound by their common expectations and difficulties.
When the deacon of the Spirit Hall from Notting City brought the light of awakening, Mu Chen's awakened spirit subverted everyone's understanding - it was not an ordinary beast spirit or weapon spirit, but a special existence deeply connected with the mysteries of water. Accompanying the awakening of the martial spirit are the unspoken past of his mother Lin Xiu, the secret of the rusty knife in his father Mu Feng's hand, and the mysterious power hidden in his blood.
From the banks of the stream in Xuanshui Village to the classroom at Notting College, from the ignorance of first entering the world of soul masters to facing the test of soul beasts and human hearts, Mu Chen moved forward step by step on the road of soul masters with the promise of protection, using water as the blade and the soul as the front. He will make friends, encounter powerful enemies, uncover the mystery of his life experience, and find a dragon path belonging to the "Xuanshui" in the turbulent continent, proving that a young man from an ordinary village can also set off waves that change the times.
