Lin Mo, a modern-day corporate drone, unexpectedly transmigrates to the Great Yan Dynasty and is bound to the mysterious [Longevity Seed]. From the start, he is a poor scholar drowning in debt. He believes in "survival above all" and knows that "you can't deal damage if you're dead," but fate has other plans for him.
From debt disputes in a remote border town to getting caught up in the secrets of a sect; from escaping the Xuantian Sect's pursuit to clashing with the mysterious Shadow Tower. Armed with knowledge beyond his time and the wisdom to "keep his head down at all costs," he scrapes by in a cultivation world full of danger. He uses modern knowledge to improve farming and crack mechanisms, hiding his heaven-defying abilities behind his ordinary identity, even keeping the strongest sect completely in the dark.
But as the [Longevity Seed] awakens, he discovers that he can not only absorb spiritual energy to extend his life, but is also deeply connected to the secrets surrounding an alchemist from three hundred years ago and the mystery of a traitor within the sect. When he can no longer keep a low profile and those around him are dragged into the conflict, the "King of Keeping His Head Down," Lin Mo, has no choice but to grip his rusty blade and set out with a medicinal herb box that can show the way and a mysterious jade pendant, forging his own path to immortality amid the whirlpool of cultivation and political intrigue.
Here you'll find the thrill of someone who plays the pig to eat the tiger, clever battles won step by step, and the warmth of people holding on to one another in desperate times. After all, the one who keeps going until the end is the real winner.
