Deep in the Canglan Mountains, Nie Chen, a young man from a dilapidated stone village, was severely injured by a ferocious beast while trying to save his tribe. When he was about to die, the mysterious desolate bones left by his father suddenly awakened in his body. The fatal wounds healed instantly, and they contained ancient desolate power that could destroy the world.
Carrying the secret of the Desolate Bones that no one knew about, he stepped into the ancestral temple to practice the Canglang Desolate Text passed down by his ancestors. Once he realized the Tao, his talent was astonishing. During the practice, the desolate bones backfired, and he accidentally glimpsed the traces of his father back then. He learned that his relatives were not dead, and also unlocked the shocking secret of the ancient ferocious beasts.
However, at the first sign of strength, powerful enemies have already broken through the mountain village and demanded the treasure. In order to protect his people, to find his missing father, and to uncover the truth about the desolate bones and the ancient wilderness, Nie Chen took the power of the desolate bones and embarked on a path of cultivation that defied the heavens, slaying powerful enemies, breaking through the sky, and climbing to the top of the wilderness step by step to write his own legend of the wilderness.
