The story is set in an era where the cultivation world and the mortal world coexist. Cultivators hide in the world, their traces difficult for ordinary people to see. The cultivation world is a vast world where strength is paramount, sects abound, and demonic forces surge. The protagonist, Lin Yi, was born in a remote mountain village in the mortal world. Orphaned at a young age, he was raised by the village elders. By chance, he discovered a mysterious jade slip in the mountains, thus embarking on the path of cultivation. From Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment, from Golden Core to Nascent Soul, Lin Yi, through sheer perseverance and fortuitous encounters, gradually broke through his own limits. On his path of cultivation, Lin Yi met Su Yao, a female cultivator from the Qingfeng Sect. The two became acquainted in an accident, facing the threat of the demon race together, hunting demonic beasts and seizing their demon cores. Supporting each other, their feelings deepened, and they eventually became cultivation partners. To pursue higher cultivation levels, Lin Yi and Su Yao joined the Qingfeng Sect. Under the sect's protection, they gained abundant cultivation resources, and their strength continuously improved. However, Lin Yi and Su Yao were not content with merely being affiliated with a sect. They harbored a greater dream—to establish their own sect and create their own path of cultivation.
