After a sudden and unfortunate explosion, You Xiaomo wakes up in a body and a world that isn’t his own. With his name being the only remaining thing familiar to him, he has to adapt quickly, a task as incredulous as it is dire. He has taken over the body of a probationary disciple of the Tianxin Sect and only has six months to prove his worth as an alchemist, or he’ll be expelled!
Determined to make a good life for himself in this new world, You Xiaomo puts his entire soul into becoming an alchemist and finding ways to earn money. While doing so, he stumbles upon Ling Xiao, the number one practitioner and rumored successor of the Tianxin Sect. While this seems to be a stroke of good luck, You Xiaomo soon discovers, to his horror, that Ling Xiao is not who he claims to be.
