Yan Wushi, the head of the sinister Huanyue sect, is a master of cultivation and strategy who holds a contemptuous view of humanity. He firmly believes that every human heart is tainted by malice and self-interest, and those who assert otherwise are either deceiving themselves or simply misguided. Enter Shen Qiao, the compassionate leader of a Daoist sect based on Xuandu Mountain. Renowned for his kindness and generosity, Shen Qiao embodies the very selflessness that Yan Wushi scorns. After a devastating defeat in a duel leaves Shen Qiao at death's door, Yan Wushi finds him and hatches a plan to reveal the inherent darkness within people. His scheme involves offering Shen Qiao refuge, testing his steadfast beliefs, and coaxing him toward demonic cultivation. Yan Wushi argues that upholding righteousness is effortless while dwelling on a celestial mountain, but enduring a thousand years of tribulation amid bloody conflicts will inevitably corrode anyone's virtue.
