Ever since Pangu split heaven and earth and Nuwa molded humans from clay, the phoenix has reigned supreme among birds. This story begins with a Golden-Winged Phoenix who, after a thousand lifetimes of cultivation, transforms into human form. Yet the hardest tribulation in the world to escape is the tribulation of love, and the Golden-Winged Phoenix is no exception.
The divine phoenix soon falls in love with a mortal man named Xue Fan. But human nature can be vicious. Xue Fan has ulterior motives, and through despicable means, he ambushes the phoenix and drains her true essence. She is forced back into her original form, and her cultivation foundation is damaged. For all eternity, she can only be a phoenix.
Time flies, and a thousand years pass in the blink of an eye. Drawing on the phoenix essence within him, along with thousands of years of cultivation, Xue Fan acquires godlike powers capable of destroying heaven and earth. At his instigation, the Divine Land is torn apart. Amid the flames of war and chaos, Xue Fan is plotting a shocking scheme to destroy the world.
