Long ago, cultivation flourished across the Eternal Continent. Countless immortal sects rose up, and cultivators braved tribulations only to defy fate and fight for that slim chance at survival. It took a will of iron: failure meant being reduced to ashes, while success meant transcending the mortal world, life and death, and even heaven and earth, until one attained sainthood in the flesh and roamed the world freely. Then, for reasons unknown, heaven and earth underwent a cataclysmic change. The spiritual energy of the Eternal Continent plummeted, gradually making it unfit for cultivators to survive, and all the cultivators disappeared. On this continent, where spiritual energy had grown scarce, the civilization of cultivation faded from people's sight.
Everyone has a fate of their own, ordained by heaven and impossible to change. An utterly ordinary young man had only one great wish: to earn enough money for his parents to live well, so no one would look down on or bully them anymore. After his parents were killed unexpectedly, he was drawn into a war between gods and demons. Determined to avenge them, he resolutely embarked on a different path, changing his fate step by step on this continent where the civilization of cultivation had vanished, until he reached the summit.
