Lin Zixuan, an odd-job disciple of the Divine Spirit Sect, has poor aptitude and has failed the annual assessment two years in a row.
He has three months to pass. If he fails, he'll be expelled from the sect and reduced to an ordinary mortal.
Everyone is waiting to see the day this good-for-nothing gets kicked out.
Lin Zixuan himself is almost ready to accept his fate.
Then one day, while gathering herbs in the mountains behind the sect, he was attacked by a beast. At the moment between life and death, the ancestral pendant he had worn for years unexpectedly awakened.
Sleeping inside that pendant was an ancient female emperor from three thousand years ago.
With the three-month assessment approaching, the whole sect is waiting to laugh at him.
The sect's once-arrogant prodigies bow their heads and admit defeat before him.
From a good-for-nothing everyone mocked to a martial arts prodigy watched by all three realms.
Lin Zixuan thought it was all because:
With the pendant in hand, the world was his.
But he didn't know:
An ancestral pendant had let a good-for-nothing defy fate and change his life.
And only when he stood at the peak of the three realms did he finally discover:
It wasn't he who chose the pendant. The pendant had been waiting for him for three thousand years.
