Within this world, under a steel sky, Qingchen faces numerous trials, relying on his courage and intelligence to survive.

Qingchen eventually becomes Li Shutong's disciple, embarking on a journey that promises to be the most challenging path, despite being considered a shortcut. The anime explores themes of survival, resilience, and the pursuit of mentorship in a dangerous and unfamiliar environment.
