Chen Fan, an overworked office drone and basketball fanatic, transmigrates by accident and discovers that the celestial court's "Immortal Arts Basketball Tournament," organized for the Peach Banquet, is a chaotic farce of powers flying everywhere and no rules in sight. Unable to stand it any longer, he uses his phone, which contains a video of Michael Jordan's game-winning shot, to introduce the gods to the magic of mortal tactics for the first time. The Jade Emperor appoints him head coach of the celestial court's team, an unprecedented honor.
Chen Fan not only brings in a modern basketball system, but also invents a livestream spell that makes words come true, turning the celestial league into a celebration across all three realms and gathering boundless faith. But a true crisis soon follows: the final chapter of the ancient war between gods and demons turns out to be a basketball championship that will determine the fate of all three realms.
When the demon clan exploits loopholes in the Heavenly Dao with an "unlimited fouls" strategy, Chen Fan finally realizes that the key to victory is repairing the broken order of the Heavenly Dao. In the end, he makes the basketball ideals of fairness, teamwork, and putting the rules first into law, leading his immortal players to win this battle of enlightenment. With the body of a mortal and a triumphant victory, he restores order to the Heavenly Dao and establishes new rules for all three realms.
