Chu Ge woke up from a dream and found that he had become a tree, taking root on an uninhabited mountain in a different world.
He was unable to speak or move. The only thing he could do was to grow silently and watch the world.
He has seen the change of dynasties, like the withering of grass and trees; he has seen monks fly into the sky, like mayflies shaking the trees. The long years have worn away his humanity, leaving only a divine loneliness.
Tens of thousands of years later, a dying girl fell under his tree. That day, a green leaf containing the origin of life broke away from the branch for the first time and fell gently.
From then on, there was a peerless empress in the world. Her sword cut off all injustices in the world, but she could only respectfully offer a cup of tea to an ancient tree on the top of Jiyun Mountain.
Later, another Confucian scholar, who was full of knowledge but had no way to serve his country, swore an oath here, and finally spoke the law. A word can determine the mountains and rivers, and kill gods and demons with a word. He called the tree "the teacher of all ways."
There is a dying demon king, a fallen swordsman, and a lost Buddhist disciple...
All the names that are astounding and brilliant, stirring up the turmoil of the ages, all come from this Jiyun Mountain.
Everyone in the world is speculating on who this mysterious master of Jiyun Mountain is.
But Chu Ge just took root here quietly, watching his branches and leaves gradually cover the entire sky. Occasionally shaking off a leaf would be the beginning of another human myth.
"I didn't intend to fight, but you can't even get out of my shade."
