In the world of cultivation where everyone pursues immortality and competes for the way of heaven, the protagonist Ye Wuji is a mortal who "has no spiritual roots and cannot practice". He gets up early every day to fetch water, chop firewood, and cook, living the most ordinary rural life. Until one day, the aftermath of a golden elixir stage monk's fight destroyed his village - Ye Wuji casually punched him, and the golden elixir monk was wiped out.
"I'm just an ordinary person who wants to live a peaceful life." Ye Wuji said as he looked at the devastated village.
