Lin Mo, a modern engineering student, unexpectedly transmigrates into the body of a young man in a remote stone village during an ancient dynasty. Faced with a land of famine, rampant banditry, and corrupt officials, he activates a mysterious Civilization Ascension System.
He advances technology, establishes schools, and trains a new army. Starting with salt drying and steelmaking, he transforms a poor village into a paradise amid the chaos. But powerful nobles are watching from within, foreign armies threaten from beyond, and a mysterious force hidden in the shadows of history is quietly making its move after a chance discovery.
Watch Lin Mo draw on knowledge far ahead of its time and the System's support to lead his followers. With the tide of technology and the light of new ideas and institutions, he will shatter the shackles on this ancient land and launch a grand civilization-building expedition that will determine the fate and future of the entire world.
