Sometime in the past, Yue Jinzhao and Yue Qi awaken outside of a village with no memories of their past. They begin to travel together in hopes of discovering who they are.
In the present, Luo Zhaoyan, the head of powerful House Luo, is trying to defeat a cult organization involved in kidnapping. He works together with the clever Jinzhao and naïve but powerful Qi, who were tricked by the cult. Zhaoyan also enlists the aid of the True Martial Alliance, who allow the timid Mechanist Altar Leader Ju Shifang to assist them. They are joined by Ming Xiu, a strict but caring spirit healer, and Xian Qing, her calm demonic companion. This party of six serves as the protagonists of the game.
During the elimination of a cult cell, they discover a suspicious doctor named Bian Luohuan. While trying to escort him to the city of Jingan to be interrogated by the Alliance, Luohuan escapes with the help of mysterious comrades. Severely injured, the party rest in a small mountain village inhabited by Xiu’s mentor, Gu Hanjiang. As the guardian of the Fount of Wu Gou, he has the ability to see into the future if he pays a price.
Legends say when the great ancient god Shennong was born, the Nine Founts were formed. These Founts are also called the Nine Wells of Heaven and Earth, and are sources of nourishment for living beings. Within the Nine Founts reside the world's most potent spiritual energies, and they serve as the foundations of the world's spiritual energy flow.
The Nine Founts were born with Shennong, and were cultivated for countless years by him to gradually become the most important sources of life in the world. To the Nine Founts, all creatures were equal-no matter if they are beautiful beasts or vile pests, all beings share the lands under their nourishment.
Because of the close connection between the Nine Founts and Shennong, the Founts were also referred to as Shennong's Nine Founts, and include: Zhao Dan, Han Sui, Re Hai, Wu Gou, Wu Hun, Chun Zi, Yan Bo, Du Zhang, and Long Tan.
