Jin Mo, a young man from the modern world, transmigrates into a beastfolk world ruled by powerful tribes of tiger, wolf, and eagle beastfolk. Humans sit at the bottom of the food chain, suffering from harsh conditions, food shortages, and discrimination from the tribes.
Relying on the modern scientific knowledge in his head, he starts with basic survival skills: finding a salt mine to improve their diet, designing a simple filter to ensure safe drinking water, and teaching people to weave cloth to keep out the cold. These practical skills gradually earn him the respect of Lei Ao, a formidable tiger-tribe warrior, and Feng Ling, a wise eagle-tribe sage, and help the beastfolk tribes accept this “weak human.”
As civilization advances, Jin Mo's modern ideals clash fiercely with tribal traditions. The hostile snake tribe watches them like a hawk, and the threat of surviving the bitter winter looms. At a life-or-death turning point, he unites the beastfolk tribes, combines modern technology with ancient wisdom, and builds a whole new beastfolk civilization. At the same time, amid the affections of several beastfolk suitors, he searches for a place to call home.
