As chaos gives way to order and the primordial world begins, countless races rise and gods and demons emerge.
Lin Yue, a soul from another world, opens his eyes amid the Primordial Violet Qi and discovers that he has become the first living being Nuwa molded from clay when Nuwa Creates Humans, the very origin of humanity.
At the time, humans are weak, crawling across the primordial world like ants. They are meat for the gods and demons and playthings beneath the claws of ferocious beasts. Though Nuwa is their creator, she must attain the Dao and become a Primordial Supreme, leaving her no time to remain and protect them.
Blessed with an astounding, heaven-defying understanding, Lin Yue is extraordinary from the moment he is born. While others find the workings of heaven and earth unfathomable, he can glimpse the tracks of the Great Dao within them. While immortals spend a thousand years trying to grasp the path to enlightenment, he can see through to the source in an instant.
Witnessing the suffering of his people in the primordial world, Lin Yue makes a solemn vow: humanity will stand tall, and the word “human” will resound throughout the heavens and earth!
He observes the stars’ transformations and comprehends the Zhou Tian Star-Dipper Art, laying the foundation for his people’s cultivation. He studies the cycles of plants and creates the Life-Giving Creation Art, helping them resist the primordial world’s fierce energies. He follows Nuwa’s example in creating humans, combines it with what he learned in his other world, and forges a “mythic path to the Dao” unique to humanity.
From teaching his people Drilling Wood to Make Fire and weaving nets to catch fish, to leading the tribes in building cities and founding states, defending against the Wu and Yao races; from listening to lectures at the Purple Heaven Palace and vying for opportunities at the Treasure Distribution Rock, to protecting humanity’s last spark during the war between the Wu and Yao and rising against the tide amid the calamity.
Lin Yue advances one careful step at a time, using his heaven-defying comprehension to unravel the myriad Daos of the primordial world. Again and again, at the brink of life and death, he gains insight into his own Dao fruit. He is not content with the ordinary Great Luo realm; he seeks to trace the Great Dao back to its source and comprehend
After all, we should still take the path of cultivating immortals. It is nonsense to say that we should take our own path out of the human race.
Why didn't the Supreme Master teach that cultivating the Jindan Dao is not good for the human body? I called him the Dao of Holding Shit, and the Supreme Master called him the Heavenly Lord of Holding Shit. The Supreme Master would not be so kind.
