The story begins in the water origin, the Aslan Empire. Qi Ling, an inn busboy since childhood, once unintentionally tamed the legendary soul beast Ice Fang during a battle between soul masters. Yin Chen (Kris Wu), sent by the Silver Priest, took Qi Ling on as his disciple. With Yin Chen's guidance, Qi Ling headed to the Grave of the Souls to seek his soul weapon, but because he could not remain still as his master had ordered, he entered the Grave of the Souls with Tianshu You Hua and Guishan Lian Quan. Qi Ling thus became caught up in the approaching storm—a clash of soul powers among the lords. At the same time, a conspiracy long in the making within the Aslan Empire is gradually coming to light. While searching for Qi Ling, Yin Chen learns that his master, the former 1st lord Gilgamesh, may still be alive, and he risks everything to begin the search for his previous master. Meanwhile, the killing lords You Ming and Thalia receive orders from the Silver Priest to kill Guishan Lian Quan and her brother, Guishen Feng Hun. A battle between lords and disciples, fought for truth and honor, thus ensues.
