Qin Tian, a young man who grew up far from home, is finally brought back to his family, only to suffer a sudden calamity. His cultivation is completely destroyed, and he is expelled from his sect. At the brink of despair, he awakens a system that enables him to rise from adversity. Rebuilding his cultivation with a Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root, he devours all things and transforms them into his own source of power, embarking on an entirely different path to immortality. Venturing out alone, he dominates his rivals in secret-realm trials, befriends like-minded companions, and encounters a great master. Overcoming countless obstacles and slaying demons along the way, he ultimately ascends to the pinnacle of the heavens with a mortal body.
