In the Great Yin Dynasty, beast taming and martial arts stand side by side. The strong can ride strange beasts across mountains and rivers, and determine the fate of the land through their military prowess. Lin Yue, a boy from Luoxia Village, lost his parents to a vicious beast when he was young and grew up relying on his grandfather. He devoted himself to practicing the incomplete family art, the Essence Absorption Method, yet never managed to grasp its secrets.
One day, he was caught up in a battle between cultivators and vicious beasts. At a critical moment, a mysterious golden light burst from the dragon-shaped beast-bone pendant his parents had left him. It effortlessly subdued the savage Black Fiend Bear and even condensed a core filled with pure vital energy. With its help, Lin Yue finally broke through his limits, drew qi into his body, and embarked on the path of cultivation.
Carrying the pendant's secret and an unshakable resolve to grow stronger, Lin Yue left the village to seek opportunity at the Qinglan Sect. He had no idea that the pendant held the key to an ancient beast-taming inheritance, or that his rise would quietly stir up turmoil across Qingzhou in the Southern Region.
From a village boy to a powerful beast tamer, he will tame rare and wondrous beasts and temper his martial foundations. He will make his mark amid the tides of dynastic struggle, fight for survival in lands overrun by strange beasts, and uncover the truth behind his parents' deaths. In this magnificent age, he will carve out a path of beast-taming all his own and make the roar of the dragon resound throughout the Nine Heavens.
