The story takes place in the modern second-tier city "Yunzhou City". It looks like an ordinary city on the surface, but in fact it hides cultivators and supernatural forces. In the secular world, only the "Special Affairs Bureau" (an official agency that handles supernatural events) and the "Xuanmen Alliance" (a non-governmental organization that controls cultivators) know about the existence of the cultivator world. The two parties have reached a tacit agreement to jointly maintain the "order of the mortal world" - cultivators are prohibited from revealing their abilities in front of ordinary people, and violators will be jointly punished.
The aura of modern cities is thin and only gathers in specific "spiritual nodes", such as century-old buildings, thousand-year-old trees, handed down antiques, underground stores of time-honored shops, etc. These nodes are the key to the cultivation of cultivators. In addition, the "will power" of ordinary people (such as the obsession of fans in Internet celebrity live broadcast rooms and the trust of customers in time-honored stores) can be converted into special energy. Some evil cults increase their strength by plundering the power of wish, which becomes one of the core conflict points in the story.
