Xia Qiu, the young master of the Shenzhao Sect, returns to the country at the invitation of his elder brother Xia Chun, only to unexpectedly discover strange research in a secret chamber. To uncover Xia Chun's secrets, he ventures to Fuyu Pool, but is persecuted by his brother and forced into becoming a sacrifice to the ancient ferocious beast Feilian. By a twist of fate, Feilian resides within Xia Qiu's body, and he loses his original powers.
He is rescued by a chance encounter with a young girl named Long Yan.
