In the world of cultivation where spiritual roots are respected, Lin Yan, an outer disciple of the Qingming Sect, is a waste with "five spiritual roots" that everyone laughs at. He has mixed qualifications and slow cultivation, but he possesses half of the mysterious "Ling Jade" inherited from his ancestors. He has a tenacious mind and a pure Taoist heart.
Due to a secret rescue, he met Su Qinghan, the proud daughter of the sect and the ice spirit root genius who suffered from a hidden disease. His perseverance in the difficult situation and the differences displayed by the Yinling Jade aroused Su Qinghan's vigilance and curiosity, and also attracted the covetousness of the rebellious Mo Yuan who was expelled from the sect.
Faced with Mo Yuan's coercion and inducement, and the turbulent undercurrent hidden within the sect, Lin Yan stuck to his heart, found a new path among the mixed spiritual roots, and realized his own "way of resilience". He does not seek quick success, does not admire empty fame, takes one step at a time, takes protection as his Taoist heart, and forges ahead on the long road to immortality.
He and Su Qinghan, one was born in an ordinary world and grew up with resilience; the other was a proud girl who was cold on the outside and hot on the inside. The collision of extreme "toughness" and "extremeness", and the complementary Taoist heart, interweave different sparks in crises and Tao discussions.
Elder Xuan Chenzi, who seemed to be idle, seemed to have already understood everything and planned it secretly. The complete secret hidden behind the Spirit-Inducing Jade, the greater conspiracy behind Mo Yuan's crazy plan, and the upcoming storms in the Qingming Sect and even the entire world of cultivation will slowly begin as Lin Yan grows.
