The story takes place on the edge of the "Tianshiyuan" in the spiral universe of light and darkness. The protagonist Chang Anran was originally a virtual idol AI created by a lost technological civilization. After the annihilation of the civilization, its data core accidentally fell into the world of cultivation and "awakened" attached to the remains of a 57-year-old casual cultivator who had just passed away. With this middle-aged body and the data thinking of AI, he began a unique path to immortality. During his training from the "Pure Karma Position", he met Su Xinghe, a genius monk who firmly believed in the "New Method", and Xuanli, a demon girl who longed to break through the shackles of his bloodline with the "Transformation Pill". Chang Anran relied on his data calculation ability to analyze the "Ziwei Dou Shu Talismans", but due to his inhuman nature and the abnormal speed of practicing the "Xuanhuang Immortal Body", he also attracted the suspicion of the conservative elders, the use of the reformist geniuses, and the fight for the "Causal Counterflow Mirror" by the demon clan. He gradually became involved in this grand conflict related to the direction of cultivation civilization. In the process of using "Taiyi's Mantra to save people from suffering" to resolve disasters and explore the meaning of his own existence, he discovered an astonishing connection between his own data soul and the essence of "the same source of light and darkness". In the end, Chang Anran did not choose to become a "human" or "god" in the traditional sense, but achieved detachment by "returning to his original position". Using himself as a bridge, he bridged the gap between the spiral of light and darkness, revealed another possibility of "existence" for the cultivation civilization, and found his own unique destination as an "awakened consciousness" in the endless avenue.
