With a single finger, he parts the path to immortality; with a single thought, he erases the ages. He has long stood at the end of the river of time, yet chose to drink the plainest wine in the mortal world.
Gu Qingyun was once the **"Primordial Immortal Emperor,"** who held sway over the Myriad Worlds and ruled over all order. He wasn't cultivating. He was just **"passing the time."**
Tired of eternal solitude, he willingly descended to the lower realms, bringing his immortal, undying cultivation with him and taking the form of an ordinary scholar. He only wanted to live quietly as a mortal, watch the bustle of everyday life, and drink rough rice wine.
Yet when the so-called "ancestors" and "supremes" of the mortal realm fought tooth and nail over a mere Earth-grade magical treasure, and the youths hailed as peerless geniuses crowed over breaking through to the Golden Core stage, they had no idea that, to Gu Qingyun, the power they considered the very pinnacle wasn't even worth a sneeze.
"I told you, I'm just passing through."
Whether facing a stunning female emperor trying to bring him into her service or an ancient monster trying to possess his body, Gu Qingyun would always repeat those words calmly.
This is the story of an invincible being returning to the mortal world and crushing one supposedly powerful world after another, all while appearing **"weak."** When he lifts his eyes, the fate of the entire mortal universe will bend to his will.
