There is an iron rule in the world of immortality: no one with five elements of spiritual roots can build the foundation.
Fifteen-year-old Lin Yan is a "waste" under this iron law. In order to find a way out for him, his parents entered a secret place and heard nothing from them. For ten years, he endured the ridicule of "Five Spiritual Roots" and worked as the hardest chore in the Alchemy Pavilion. He practiced hard for three years, but he was always stuck at the seventh level of Qi Refining.
It wasn't until he failed to pass a level that he finally touched the bottom of the "bottomless pit" in his body - a gray bead hidden deep in the sea of consciousness that relied on absorbing his spiritual power to repair itself.
Zhuzi regained consciousness and gave him a spiritual field that could ripen spiritual grass, and a heaven-defying sword code that allowed him to escape death. But no opportunity comes in vain, and the price of cleansing the marrow is to drain the spiritual field of vitality.
Borrowing pearls goes against the sky,
"The five elements cannot build the foundation? Then I will use these five elements' waste spiritual roots to create a destiny!"
Let's see how a low-level outer sect disciple relies on extreme caution and calculation, between the waste pill and the spiritual field, step by step to smash the iron law that has trapped the world for hundreds of years!
