In the Guixu Valley of Cangque Mountain, Chen Xuan has lived in seclusion for ten years. Once an unparalleled genius of the Chen family in Xuanjing, he discovered a hidden flaw in his cultivation technique, only to be ambushed and thrown off a cliff. Fortunately, the valley's guardian took him in, and he mastered the long-lost Guixu inheritance, reaching the pinnacle of the Divine Condensation Realm. To refine the Dragon-Tiger Golden Pill and break through to the next realm, he leaves the mountains in search of spiritual ingredients. Dressed in an old coarse robe with his hair tied up by a wooden hairpin, he knows little of the ways of the city, yet possesses extraordinary powers. He wants no part in the power struggles of wealthy families; he only wishes to reclaim the mysterious-pattern jade box left behind by his mother. But his former family relentlessly closes in, and business rivalries and schemes follow one after another. When this secluded cultivator steps into the bustling mortal world, old grudges and tangled affairs become impossible to avoid.
