Lin Feng, a graduate student in the Department of History, is obsessed with exploring the hidden connections between ancient Chinese mythology and dusty history. A strange ancient jade pendant passed down from his family and a ring of unknown material obtained by chance became the core of his research. When rigorous academic collisions surpass the technological testing of the times, the star maps projected by lines, unidentifiable symbols, and clues that are surprisingly consistent with Warring States relics and ancient myths all point to a truth that subverts cognition: those ethereal legends may have been the cold reality!
An accident in a verification experiment caused Lin Feng to be involved in the turbulence of time and space. When he was about to die, the jade pendant and the ring merged and turned into the mysterious treasure "Huanyujian", which protected him from falling into the Xuanhuang Star Realm, a world of immortality where the jungle is strong and the strong eat the weak.
Starting from a mortal with no power to tie a chicken, Lin Feng relied on the power of deduction and analysis of "Huanyu Jian" to survive in this low-level cultivation world with scarce resources and dangers. Qi refining, foundation building, golden elixir... Every step is soaked in blood, sweat and calculation. He makes close friends, encounters powerful enemies, gets involved in feuds between sects, and explores ancient secrets. He is low-key and tolerant, but occasionally shows his edge; he is calculating and careful, and he also values love and justice.
From the muddy struggle in the Xuanhuang Star Realm, to the brutal battle to ascend to the Spiritual Realm, to the supreme journey across the Star Realm and to win the Divine Land, Lin Feng's footprints have traveled all over the vast Star Ruins. He controls the stars, understands the laws, and rises in the flames of the world. The ultimate secret of the "Huanyu Mirror" and why it chose itself are always with it. The ancient myths of the earth and the sparks of wisdom contending among a hundred schools of thought actually projected an unexpected grand picture in this otherworldly starry sky, guiding him towards the ultimate truth and transcendence.
