Yang Jiao is reborn as Yang Jian’s older brother. As his memories from a past life awaken, he is bound by a System with a death countdown, and learns exactly how he and his father will die horribly beneath the blades of the celestial soldiers.
He diligently cultivates spiritual energy and tries repeatedly to call for help, but in the end, he cannot resist the calamity ordained by Heaven. Dark clouds loom over Guanjiangkou as divine soldiers descend from the Heavenly Court. His father is killed, his mother is captured, and he uses the last of his vitality to break the seal on Yang Jian’s bloodline before dying with hatred in his heart.
At death’s door, he unexpectedly merges with a fragment of the laws of space and time. His remnant soul falls into Chaos-Breathing Soil, where it sleeps for endless ages within Mount Buzhou’s barrier.
On the eve of the Dragon-Han Calamity, Yang Jiao takes Chaos-Breathing Soil as his body and is reborn in a new form, merging with the Great Dao of Space and Time. His cultivation reaches the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, and he takes the Daoist title Xuanjiao Daoist.
Bearing the source of all earth and commanding the flow of time, he watches the Three Clans vie for supremacy and the Primordial World descend into turmoil, silently accumulating supreme power.
Through the endless ages and successive calamities, he waits for time to reach that one day: the day he returns to the disaster at Guanjiangkou, defies fate, protects his family, overturns the laws of Heaven, and forges a Primordial Great Dao entirely his own.
