His frail younger sister, Wanqing, is forcibly taken away and turned into a test subject. On the brink of death, a family heirloom jade pendant awakens an ancient cultivation legacy. To save his sister, he ventures into the wasteland to hunt demonic beasts and joins forces with Han Yue, Zhao Mang, and others to establish the Taichu Pavilion, sheltering those abandoned by the old order. As the secrets of the Ark gradually come to light, Jiang Chen discovers that the faction that took his sister is also plundering the entire world. Facing powerful enemies and life-or-death trials, he must grow from a brother who fights alone into a leader who stands alongside his companions and protects everyone. Can they reclaim their loved ones' destinies and win a way to survive for ordinary people?
