When chaos first parted, the Primordial World came into being. Countless races rose, each vying for the Great Dao. Ever since Pangu split heaven and earth and transformed into all things, the Primordial World has been a stage where cultivators pursue the Great Dao and fight over fortune. In this magnificent age, the Jie Sect stood as a giant, commanding the world’s most abundant fortune. Yet the Investiture of the Gods calamity brought about its decline, leaving behind only endless regret.
Zhao Feng, a modern man who accidentally transmigrates into the Primordial World, finds himself becoming the future God of Wealth, Zhao Gongming, while still in a daze. The Investiture of the Gods calamity has yet to begin, and he is in the Jie Sect, fully aware that the disaster will bring it to ruin. Just as fear takes hold and he has no idea how to respond, the “Great Dao Guardian System” quietly awakens.
With the System at his side, Zhao Gongming gains the ability to glimpse heavenly secrets, devise cultivation techniques, and gather fortune. He knows the fated paths of the Jie Sect’s immortals, understands his master Tongtian’s deepest convictions, and is fully aware of the plans of the Chan Sect and the Western Teachings. Determined to protect the sect that gave him a new life and keep the efforts of its fallen disciples from going to waste, Zhao Gongming sets out to defy fate and change the future.
He devotes himself to cultivation on the Three Immortal Islands and strengthens his Dao foundation; he travels across the Primordial World, makes allies, and defuses crises; he urges his master to revise the sect’s doctrines and unite its people. Beneath the shadow of the Investiture of the Gods calamity, Zhao Gongming draws together the wealth of heaven and earth in his role as the God of Wealth, lays down peerless formations, and protects the Jie Sect. In the turbulent Primordial World, he will forge his own path to the Dao, overturn the Jie Sect’s fate, and write a legendary tale.
