Lu Chen, a good-for-nothing with absolute spiritual roots, merges with the ancient rebellious spirit "Jin" on the verge of death. He realizes that the three thousand cultivation worlds are an eternal cage forged by primordial artifacts, and ascension is actually a scam of soul sacrifice. He cultivates forbidden artifact-refining arts, rallies outcasts of the three realms, engages in a two-way game with Jin who is both friend and foe, step by step shatters the sect shackles, and finally subverts the rules of heaven and earth, redeeming all beings through the ages.
