What you think of as a modern city is just the tip of the iceberg.
The antique shop next to the skyscraper hides a stronghold for cultivating immortals, the subway tunnel is connected to the underground spiritual veins, and the "ordinary company" in the office building is the sect office - this is a hidden world unknown to mortals and where monks sneak.
Lin Mo, a delivery boy struggling at the bottom, broke into this world of immortal cultivators due to an unexpected fight on a rainy night. With four false spiritual roots and inferior magic weapons, he relied on his forbearance and calculation far beyond ordinary people to make a difficult balance between making a living as a mortal and taking risks in cultivating immortals.
Infighting among sects, ancient martial arts families, underground secret realms, the secret of spiritual energy exhaustion... As his strength grew, Lin Mo discovered that the world hidden under the city was far more complicated and cruel than he imagined.
The road to immortality for a mortal is filled with thorns at every step. He can only hold on to the old mobile phone case in his hand, walk alone in the darkness, and carve his own path to the sky.
