My name is Chen Jiu, and I have been in the martial arts world for thirty years. I specialize in treating all kinds of "external diseases" - photographing flowers and jeopardizing longevity, collecting raw materials and cutting them, making animals to confuse you, and hiding utensils and objects. I have seen all these evil tricks that are classified as the "Thirty-Six Heretic Techniques". Everyone in the world knows that magicians are evil and unpredictable, but I say that all kinds of magic are not evil, but the most evil thing is the human heart.
When I was seventeen years old, my master died from a "life-extending spell". Before his death, he drew a "lotus" mark on the ground. For the next thirty years, I traveled around the world treating outsiders while tracking down this mark. I have seen children who were kidnapped and kidnapped, mutilated people who were mutilated and deformed and begging, living people who were made into animals and turned into livestock, and puppets whose minds were controlled by seed thoughts. Behind every external illness, there is a heart full of desires.
When I finally found the organization called "True Demon", I discovered that my master's death was just the tip of the iceberg - my own life experience was actually a life-sustaining spell that failed thirty years ago. My life is connected to another person, and that person has been waiting for me. And the most terrifying truth is: the enemy I have been tracking down for half my life may be the person I know best.
In my thirty years in the martial arts world, I have cured countless people's external diseases, but I cannot cure my own.
