Li Changsheng awakens the memories of his past lives and learns that he has already reincarnated ninety-nine times in this low-martial world. In this life, he finally condenses the Immortal Dao Fruit and gains the eternal life he has dreamed of.
He thinks he has landed the protagonist's role, destined to become invincible and roam the myriad worlds at his leisure. But it isn't long before his smile fades.
