Gu Changsheng transmigrates to the cultivation world and becomes a menial servant tasked with sweeping floors at the Lingxiao Sect. He also gets bound to the Primordial Mythic Daoist Arena.
After hiding away in the arena for a full hundred thousand years, he finally cultivates to become a Great Encompassing Golden Immortal!
Knowing that the mighty figures of the Primordial Era could destroy the heavens and earth, and that the consequences of crossing them were terrifying, Gu Changsheng decides to keep hiding at all costs, concealing his cultivation and pretending to be an utterly ordinary Qi Refining cultivator.
But he has no idea that the outside world has already endured the Great Tribulation of the Decline of the Dharma, with its legacies lost. In the cultivation world of today, even a Nascent Soul cultivator can become the founder of a sect!
And so, everything takes a completely different turn.
The leftovers he gives to a stray dog transform it on the spot into a Heaven-Swallowing Qilin;
Out of pity for his down-on-her-luck senior sister, he casually gives her a scrap of iron meant for chopping wood, only for it to help her comprehend an ancient killing formation and become an unparalleled empress;
Then one day, the legendary and supremely vicious patriarch of the Demon Sect attacks the mountain gate, plunging the sect into despair.
Hiding behind the crowd, Gu Changsheng cautiously flicks out a single blade of grass.
Boom! The Demon Sect patriarch and the hundred thousand mountains behind him are instantly reduced to ash.
Gu Changsheng is horrified. “What the hell? Another fake death? This has to be a trick to escape! The outside world really is devious. I’d better hide even deeper...”
