Tang San, a gifted disciple of the Tang Sect, masters its forbidden inner techniques and pays for the transgression with his life, throwing himself from Hell's Peak. He wakes reborn on the continent of Douluo, where everyone awakens a personal spirit and the strongest train as Spirit Masters. The spirit he draws is the seemingly worthless Blue Silver Grass, but a rare bloodline lets it grow into something far greater. Carrying his old sect's hidden-weapon craft into a new life, Tang San sets out to climb the ranks of the Spirit Masters.
