Xiao Yu's five spiritual roots were already quite weak, and he hadn't expected the blood stone in his contract to be black and white. This practically doomed him to a lifetime as a Qi Refiner.
Fortunately, he was the legitimate son of the patriarch, and the patriarch and mistress would not allow anyone to harm their son. Therefore, from the age of three to fifteen, he was still able to collect some resources for cultivation from his parents and brothers.
Fourteen-year-old Xiao Yu, who had just reached the fourth level of Qi Refining, married Zhou Xingzhi, one of the young masters of Wanxiang Pavilion, a famous chamber of commerce in the Hundred Thousand Savage Continent, on her coming-of-age day, at the insistence of her family elders and her own will. Zhou Xingzhi was also a loser but had a great talent for business.

Without a talent for cultivation, being a wealthy idler for a lifetime wouldn't be a big deal. But these two were unlucky. Not long ago, while they were out escorting important supplies, they encountered a new secret realm opening up.
For high-level cultivators, secret realms represent opportunities. But for mortals and low-level cultivators, secret realms, especially those that have just been activated, are like mirages, to be admired from afar and not to be explored.
In the secret realm that has just been opened, any random movement is a disaster more terrifying than a magnitude 12 earthquake. Basically, if you encounter it, you will definitely die.
Very "luckily", Zhou Xingzhi, the business genius and cultivation waste of the Zhou family, and the waste of the Xiao family, were caught in the space storm by the space turbulence caused by the "suddenly rising" secret realm.

"Your stone is so beautiful!" When Xiao Yu opened his eyes, he saw a colorful but not so transparent stone that looked a bit gray. It turned into a stream of light and merged into Zhou Yanzhi's eyebrows.
Zhou Yanzhi frowned as he received the information, his face expressionless for a long time.
"Brother, what's wrong?"
“…”
"Uh, well, at worst, you could become a martial artist again?"
Zhou Yanzhi rubbed the child's head with his big hand and said with a wry smile, "Perfection is also good."
Xiao Yu: Perfect? Is that what he thought?
"Zhou Xingzhi?"
"Um."
Xiao Yu: (⊙o⊙)…Are we so destined to meet each other?
Zhou Yanzhi smiled: "We are Taoist companions with a soul contract. Even if we change time and space, the contract will not change."
As they were talking, Long Xunhai and Lei Xiangqian in front of them also absorbed their respective stones. The heroine, on the other hand, seemed to be 'selecting' carefully.
"Why? As soon as we touched those stones, they were absorbed. Why can't she do that? Can she even pick them?"
Zhou Yanzhi frowned and said, "Bloodline Stones are a bit like soul pets. Although each person only has one in their lifetime, they can fuse with others'. The higher the aptitude of the fused one, the greater the chance of improving one's own talent."
"Wouldn't that mean we can kill people and steal treasures?"
