Is eternal life destiny or punishment? Mo Chen was reborn in the Great Yan Dynasty in the 980th year of the Longyan Calendar. This ancient civilization was being divided up by the great powers. With an immortal body and a "civilization fire" system, he disappears into the shadows of history and ignites a glimmer of light at every moment of life and death.
From saving the country through industry to fighting the enemy in bloody battles, from technological blockade to interstellar expedition. He spent a hundred deaths to pave the way to advancement in civilization, but he had to bury every encounter and parting with his own hands. When the Great Yan Civilization finally became the torch that illuminated the Milky Way, the original watcher had been walking alone in the long river of time for five centuries.
This is a redemption of civilization that spans thousands of years, and is also a two-way journey between an immortal and his homeland - "I give immortality to civilization, and civilization gives me meaning."
