The Golden Core was the foundation of a cultivator and thus when the patriarch and the foster father to Chen Fann decided to take it, Chen was obviously unwilling, pained and disappointed.

He was an orphan and a beggar on the streets when the patriarch rescued him so as gratitude, he did the unthinkable and handed over his golden core, eight years of intense cultivation and qi condensation.

Chen Fann later realizes that all the while, the patriarch had been harboring sinister intentions with him since he possessed a rare divine body.

But it was all too late and by the time he realized it, he was too weak to fight for his life.

Unconscious and with life draining out of him, he was thrown into a mass grave left to die.

Miraculously, the soul of a ferocious beast from the ancient era, the fifth son of a dragon which happened to be roaming at the time takes Chen Fann as a host.

As a recompense, Chen Fann learns the Devouring Rune technique which enables him to extract spiritual energy and innate talent of all things.

In a brutal martial world where most people possessed innate bloodlines,

Chen Fann was destined to become a strong feared entity. He sets back on the path of revenge, supremacy and most of all, a stimulating adventure with a mythical beast.
