In 2025, the world is struggling to catch its breath in the ongoing economic winter. Lu Xian, a thirty-year-old man whose life is filled with the word "failure", stands on the edge of the cliff of life. He is an abandoned baby who was picked up in the family's plan to continue the incense, but he grew up with moral kidnapping and cold eyes. He is sensitive, has low self-esteem, and is incompatible with the world around him. Unemployed, in debt, no one understood him, and the cruel squeeze of society left him breathless. While watching short videos about rebirth, adventure, and getting rich overnight, his despair gave birth to his last crazy idea: to go to the depths of Ailao Mountain, which was listed as a forbidden area, to find a slim chance to change his destiny, even if it cost him his life.
However, when Lu Xian stepped into the depths of the primitive mountain forest shrouded in fog and chaotic magnetic fields, what Lu Xian encountered was not death, but a "divine revelation" that subverted his cognition. He was not reborn, but unexpectedly awakened and became the weak "anchor" or "container" of the long-lost mythical power of the Chu family - the Jiuge divine system with Donghuang Taiyi as its core - in modern times. An ancient and majestic voice (Donghuang Taiyi? Mountain Ghost? Da Siming?) Whispered in his consciousness, leading him to glimpse a truth buried in the dust of history: China does not have only a single pantheon of gods. The "unity" of Taoist mythology conceals the belief pattern of hundreds of flowers blooming in ancient times. The romance and wildness of the Chu land, the weirdness and wonder of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, the ethereal fairyland of Kunlun and Penglai... These pantheons have never really disappeared, but have become silent, distorted, or conflicted with each other in the changes in beliefs.
