The story takes place in a mysterious era where consciousness cultivation and parallel universes are intertwined. The protagonist, Tang Qun, has the bloodline of the ancient ferocious beast Taotie. In order to suppress the crazy desire in his bloodline to devour all things, he is forced to become a "cooking cultivator" who cooks spiritual food to "digest" and transform desires. When he went deep into the "collective unconscious layer" in search of special ingredients, he accidentally touched the "Primordial Chaos Cauldron" sealed by the "Tianji Tamper". From then on, he could see vague fragments of the future Tianji. This ability made him the focus of competition between the destiny masters and the gamebreakers, and also attracted the pursuit of the destiny tamperers who vowed to erase all variables. While escaping and practicing, Tang Qunqian met Xuanwu, who was carrying Luo Shu and searching for the true coordinates of the universe, and gradually discovered that his Taotie bloodline was mysteriously connected with the origin of the "ocean of consciousness". He shuttles between different branches of possibility, searching for his own "Tao" in the process of cooking spiritual food that contains "thoughts", in the philosophical struggle between desire and reason, obedience and resistance, countless small accumulations and final enlightenment. In the end, he faced the ultimate test of "cosmic mind". After understanding the true meaning of "quantitative change" and "qualitative change", he made a choice to transcend reincarnation and reshape "possibility".
