Luo Ji is a mighty cultivator at the Deification stage. After failing her tribulation three times, she is struck by heavenly lightning during the third attempt and sent to the Great Yong Dynasty, where she becomes the discarded daughter of a general's household. If she dares use her divine power, she will be struck by lightning. All she has left are the ability to see yin spirits, which she developed as a child, and the skill of divining misfortune. She seeks justice for the thousand members of the Daoist community offered as sacrifices, punishes evildoers, exposes the monks of Wuliang Temple for deceiving the world and stealing their reputations, and saves the dragon vein from collapse. She completes the Great Dao and finally attains perfection.
