When Lin Mo woke up from the pile of ancient books in the library and found himself a beggar on the street, he thought it was just a ridiculous dream. It wasn't until the blood-stained fragment of the "Nine Heavens Manual" fell into his hands that he was shocked to realize that it was clearly the suppressing technique of the "Nine Heavens Pavilion", a cultivating sect that mysteriously disappeared thousands of years ago that he had studied.
In this world where martial arts and immortality coexist, Lin Mo relied on modern thinking and historical knowledge to quickly discover an anomaly: Why do the martial arts of various sects look like incomplete versions of some immortal cultivation techniques? Why does he always feel strangely familiar with the ancient books in this world? What's even more terrifying is that every full moon night, he will dream of a voice calling: "Find the Tianmen and complete the mission..."
From the streets to the fairy gate, Lin Mo's every step seemed to be guided by invisible hands. The allies you make have secrets hidden in them, and the enemies you encounter have the same confusion in their eyes. When he found the diary left by the previous travelers in the ancient tomb, he was shocked to realize that he was not an accidental visitor - all the travelers were "selected" chess pieces, and the "Nine Heavens Manual" was the key to open the door to the two worlds.
This time, Lin Mo decided not to be a puppet of fate. He will enter the Tao with martial arts and break the chess game with wisdom. In this chess game that spans thousands of years, he will find a way to freedom for himself and all the souls trapped between the two worlds.
