On the Xuanwu Continent, profound energy reigns supreme. Xiao Yunjin, an orphan from Stone Saint Village, carries the blood of a foreign race. Cold as ice, she is also the prophesied Chosen Daughter of Heaven. Shen Duxing was once a prodigy, but after his family was wiped out, he was driven to the borderlands, bearing a blood feud.
The assassins of the Netherworld Pavilion relentlessly hunt him down. His father used his life to protect him in his final moments, leaving behind an incomplete cultivation technique. Huddled in a cave and on the brink of death, Shen unexpectedly gains a golden finger.
The Nine-Turn Profound Infant Art awakens, reversing the flow of profound energy through his meridians and making him reborn. The technique can devour the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and temper his body in tribulation flames. With each turn, his combat power doubles.
Others toil for ten years just to become Profound Masters. He breaks through several realms in three months. His former mockers look up in terror, only to see him arrive beneath the moon and cleave a mountain with one sword.
Rising from the ruins, he will crush the imperial capital and uncover the mystery behind the origin of profound energy. Twin tribulation flames consume the heavens. In this life, who dares claim supremacy?
