Lu Shu was a frail teenager with an iron will. After losing his parents, he enrolled in a prestigious high school while working to support himself and his adoptive little sister, Lu Xiaoyu. However, Lu Shu's quiet life abruptly changed when a car accident awakened his latent cultivation superpowers. Now cured of his physical weakness, he decides to hide his newfound abilities, as the art of cultivation is still shrouded in mystery—and the fate of cultivators uncertain.
Meanwhile, Tian Luo Di Wang, the international foundation responsible for monitoring the cultivators, sets its plans in motion. Under the impetus of their member Xi Fei, a special cultivation training group is established in Lu Shu's high school. Although Lu Shu is forced to join the program, he is determined to hide the nature of his fearsome power, for his cultivation draws from an unlimited resource: the negative emotions of others brought about by his actions.
