In the spring of the 36th year of Jiajing, a modern soul who was disheartened in the center of reality and believed that he could not shoulder the mission of the times was reborn in the body of Xu Yi, a poor scholar in a mountain village in western Guangdong. At that time, the Ming Dynasty was turning from prosperity to decline, with unrest on the sea and border and internal worries. With the knowledge and unwillingness to transcend time and space, Xu Yi embarks on the road of scientific research, vowing to change the fate of himself, his family and his nation. From border villages to the heights of temples, he joined hands with, dealt with, or fought against the outstanding talents of his generation, such as the thoughtful Shen Han. In the twilight of the dynasty, he sought a different way out for the Chinese nation and reshaped the mountains and seas.
