The Nine Immortals Show the Way

Neon Alley, a dreamlike place on the fringes of the city, where the lights never go out.

Huo Jingshen was once a top student, but after his parents divorced, he became obsessed with livestream tipping.

Raised by a single parent, Wen Xueci entered a nightclub to work as a hostess just to make ends meet.

A Zhe was forced to retire after an injury, and drowned his old dream of becoming a martial artist in alcohol.

Xiaoman was tricked into coming to the city, expecting freedom but ending up trapped at the bottom of society.

Born into wealth, Dapeng was hollow inside and relied on drugs to stay alert.

They met here, relying on one another in their indifference as their souls quietly crumbled.

The ancient barrier known as the Ruins of Cultural Heritage awakened, and the nine great cultures became nine immortals.

They unexpectedly gained a golden finger, and nine immortal men and women quietly descended.

Each person represented one culture: ritual, music, archery, charioteering, calligraphy, mathematics, poetry, painting, and craftsmanship.

They wielded no divine powers, using only resonance to awaken the innocence deep within people's hearts.

They began to face their pain and reclaim their courage and dreams.

Some returned to school, some took up apprenticeships, and some started businesses to help others.

When a fire broke out in Neon Alley, they chose to run toward it and rescue people.

The nine immortals appeared and whispered, "You are the true immortals."

While others continued to sink, the light in their hearts burned bright.

In the end, the light of culture would illuminate both themselves and the road ahead.
