The young Luo Xiu was born humble and with mediocre talents, but unexpectedly merged with the ultimate treasure of the law of life and death.

From then on, he hid the wheels of life and death from the heavens, took control of reincarnation, created supreme magical powers, and became a generation of great emperors.

The dragon tower came to the world, and the young man refined the nine dragon emperors, cultivated the eternal invincible dragon body, killed the gods and demon emperors, the gods blocked the gods, the Buddha blocked the Buddha, and the invincible nine thousand

A mediocre, low-born beggar, he relied on only his firm and indomitable spirit to desperately cultivate but still could not exceed the masses. Then by fortune’s favor, he awakened a long-extinct ancient martial soul. Since that day, he soared like a comet on the path of cultivation. From his humble beginnings as an outsider in the Ling Clan, his name, Ling Xiao, would ring throughout the world.

Long Chen, a crippled youth who cannot cultivate, is constantly targeted and bullied by his fellow noble heirs. After a particularly vicious beating, he wakes up and realizes a Pill God’s soul has somehow merged with him, giving him additional memories. Among those memories is the mysterious “Nine Star Hegemon Body Art”, a cultivation technique even he can train in, but its secrets and origin are still a mystery to him. Relying on his improved instincts as he finally begins to cultivate, he realizes a huge conspiracy is underfoot within the Phoenix Cry Empire, one involving his father, the members of the imperial family, and even the emperor himself.

In order to solve the mysteries around him, he must rely on his new alchemy techniques and the powerful but baffling Nine Star Hegemon Body Art. Countless enemies block him as he attempts to climb to the peak of the cultivation world.

His destined fate was to only be a chess piece, but he will not bow to the will of the Heavens.
