The continent of Tianzhou is shrouded in an ocean of vital energy, and is home to two races: humans and demons.
Since ancient times, demonic beasts have been blessed by Heaven, born sacred and extraordinary, and blessed with long lives.
Humans, by contrast, are as weak as ants. Their lives are no more than a hundred years, spent in a miserable nightmare of being treated as food.
Since the dawn of recorded history, some have imitated demonic beasts and tempered their bodies to save the world, while others have pursued the path of bloodline fusion. Yet both approaches yielded little, and humanity endured more than ten million years of enslavement.
Then Kong attained enlightenment beneath the Bodhi tree and founded the Five Spirits cultivation system. Generation after generation of prodigies and mighty cultivators followed in his footsteps, paving a path to enlightenment with blood and tears and refining the system.
At last, Kong ascended to the Imperial Realm, and humanity gained the supreme strength to determine the fate of its race!
Over the next hundred thousand years, Shun, Yao, Yu, Zhou, Zhou, Huang successively ascended to the Imperial Realm.
The demon race panicked and started a war between the races, plunging the continent of Tianzhou into devastation. History records that humanity's Seven Ancient Emperors and the demon race's Eight Demon Emperors fought to a mutual end, and blood rained across the world!
Humanity won a bitter victory, and the continent was split into four.
Humanity claimed three regions, while the demon race took the west. For ten million years, they coexisted in peace and flourished.

The ancient past has been stirred, the distant past lies asleep, and the recent past has gone mad. What can the present do?
A young man escapes from a cursed land where he was imprisoned a thousand years ago. With a white fox at his side, he plunges headlong into a grand and perilous world of dark clouds and twisted shadows...
