Because the universe began with the Big Bang, its expansion gave rise to countless bubbles of spacetime. These parallel realms never overlapped, existing in a dynamic state of balance.
The nuclear arms race put the world's future in grave danger.
After a nuclear test, a massive explosion tore through spacetime. Its immense force opened a gateway to another world, causing the two realms to overlap and strange phenomena to emerge.
In the gaps between ordinary days, Chen Fan accidentally stumbled into another world while fishing. Its technology was about a century behind the modern world, but its culture of cultivation flourished, and everyone regarded self-cultivation as the foundation of a good life. More striking still, cultivators who had lived for hundreds of years were commonplace. Their youthful appearances never faded, and their extraordinary abilities drew envoys from neighboring states seeking their teachings.
As time passed, these immortals seized control and ruthlessly exploited the lower classes, sparking a wave of fierce resistance. Soon after arriving, Chen Fan met Zhou Muyao, a key figure in the resistance. Amid raging battles and political schemes, the two fought side by side, and through their courage and wisdom brought a brief peace to this long-suffering land.
Three years passed in the blink of an eye. Chen Fan's longing for home grew ever stronger. Guided by an expert, he and Zhou Muyao entered a formation in the Kunlun Mountains, hoping to return to reality, but their attempt ended in failure. A twist of fate came without warning: a natural anomaly by the Lingyin River became a chance for the two worlds to intersect, and the pair successfully transmigrated back to the real world.
In the end, after weathering countless trials and witnessing the world's splendor, they chose to leave the clamor of the mortal world behind and retire to the countryside, keeping the turbulent memories of their time in both worlds sealed away as they lived in peace.
