Zhao Qing is a useless cultivator with four spiritual roots. Starting as a servant in the Wild Wolf Gang, he sets out on the path of cultivation as an ordinary mortal. He has no heaven-defying golden finger, only the meager help of an ancestral stone tablet. In a brutal world of resource plunder and sect infighting, he proceeds with caution, using his mortal body to forge a path of his own, the way of the wolf. He seeks neither fame nor glory, only the slimmest chance to survive.
