Synopsis

A sudden car accident kills Shen Wangnian, an ordinary modern man, in the street, but also brings him an incredible, heaven-defying opportunity. A soul from another world transmigrates into the body of a young man of the same name who has just died in Qingshi Village, deep in the vast realm of cultivation.

Others face near-certain death after transmigrating and struggle in vain to attain immortality. But as his soul crosses over, Shen Wangnian unexpectedly awakens the destiny of eternal life.

With an endless lifespan, untouched by time, immune to all illness, and beyond the reach of the Heavenly Dao, he is born already at a destination countless cultivators spend their whole lives trying and failing to reach.

In a remote mountain village at the edge of the wilderness, everyone races against time in pursuit of cultivation and fights for every opportunity, afraid of dying with regrets when their lifespan runs out. Shen Wangnian alone remains calm and unhurried.

He has no heaven-defying techniques or overpowered golden finger, only an inexhaustible span of years.

He lies low in a village among ordinary people, watching their daily lives and the changes of the world, refining his Dao foundation and quietly waiting for his chance.

The rise and fall of sects, the replacement of dynasties, and the changing of seas and fields are no more than the blink of an eye to him.

On his long road of cultivation, he takes eternal life as his foundation and time as his sword, forging a supreme path all his own, until he becomes an immortal legend spanning the ages, beyond the reach of all.
