The protagonist Tuanzi is tested with a "waste spiritual root", clutching half a jade pendant as she embarks alone on a journey to find her family. Along the way, she meets five spirit beast friends, naming them Nuomi, Baozi, Tangtang, Dousha, and Tangyuan, forming the warm "Dim Sum Squad". She does not know she is the reincarnation of the King of All Beasts, nor that the relative secretly protecting her all along is that mysterious entity making the cultivation world tremble in fear. Until the Beast Hunting Sect brings disaster to the spirit beasts, she steps forward, golden light soaring into the sky, and a million spirit beasts worship.
