The story begins when a group called "Tianwairenren" suddenly descend into the fantasy world. They are immortal, behave weirdly, regard the natives as NPCs, are keen on "tasks" and "rewards", and are regarded by the world as a disaster from heaven, the "fourth natural disaster".
The protagonist Gu Jinyan is a storyteller with no talent for cultivation. When his sect is about to be destroyed by a wave of aliens, with his extraordinary observation and insight into the human heart, he discovers the underlying logic of the aliens' actions - they are driven by "stories" and "interests".
Without any golden fingers, Gu Jinyan used his identity as a storyteller to start weaving "legendary missions", "hidden plots" and "epic copies" one after another. He set the enemy of the sect as the "Novice Village BOSS", packaged the scarce medicinal materials into "god-level materials", and disassembled the great cause of recovering the sect into countless "main tasks" that would give the aliens a great sense of accomplishment.
He doesn't use a single soldier, but uses his sharp tongue to manipulate millions of "players" at the palm of his hand. While other sects and dynasties were still afraid of this group of immortal lunatics, Gu Jinyan had quietly incorporated them into his sharpest swords. From a behind-the-scenes guide, he gradually became the uncrowned king of the world, and finally revealed the ultimate secret of the "player"'s arrival.
