Shen Hanxing, a female warrior from the apocalypse, has her soul sent back through time to ancient times, where she becomes an orphan in a mountain village.
Her family is dirt-poor, and she is forced to marry Gu Qingci, a sickly scholar, in someone else’s place.
Her new husband is frail and ill, his clan bullies them, and life is hard.
By chance, she acquires a mysterious spirit spring dimension with an acre of black soil.
The spring water can purify the body, and the black soil can grow rare, extraordinary plants.
She grows spirit herbs to save her husband and cultivates improved crops to fend off disaster.
While others are still struggling to get enough to eat, she quietly grows rich.
From their mountain village to the imperial court, the couple join hands to overcome one crisis after another.
As the spirit spring advances, it unlocks an arsenal, a library, and a spirit beast garden.
Combining modern know-how with the power of her dimension, she opens workshops, builds trade routes, and provides relief to disaster victims.
