Synopsis

In a primeval mythological era where nomadic human tribes revere sacred animal totems, supernatural beasts and savage forces threaten humanity's survival. Elite warriors chosen by their tribes undergo grueling spiritual trials to commune with animal deities, becoming revered Totem Warriors who channel colossal mystical strength. Although young tribesman Xiao Long was never intended to bear such dangerous responsibility, unexpected tribal catastrophes thrust him onto the perilous path of warriorhood. Venturing across primordial wilderness filled with colossal predators and rival clans, Xiao Long unlocks ancient spiritual power to safeguard his people.
