Li Zimu, a miserable high school senior in his final year, dies from grinding through practice exams (not really), then wakes up reborn as the Heavenly Dao of an entire world.
Good news: He's the Creator God, supreme and immortal through the ages.
Bad news: This world is a complete mess, and his predecessor didn't even leave an instruction manual.
Li Zimu rolls up his sleeves. "Fine, I'll patch it up."
Other Heavenly Daos create worlds with earth-shattering feats, dazzling golden light, and sages bowing in worship.
He creates a world by making 80 primitive people squat on the ground and investigate why rocks aren't edible.
Other Heavenly Daos preach, and flowers rain from the sky, golden lotuses spring from the earth, and all beings achieve enlightenment.
He preaches, and the cultivators below scribble notes, then go home and compile The Heavenly Dao's Sayings. Next, they start an online debate on the spiritual network and argue for eight hundred years over what one comma means.
Last life, he ground through practice exams. This life, he's a god.
Last life, his homeroom teacher scolded him for slacking off. This life, his followers anonymously post on the forum accusing him of lurking.
Last life, physics made him lose his hair. This life, he writes buggy laws of nature.
The world lies in tatters, and he patches it up piece by piece.
As he works, he turns a group of rock-munching primitives into an interstellar civilization spanning humans, demons, devils, and insectoids.
As he works, the spiritual network forum's servers crash again.
This is a story about creation and protection.
It's also a story about how a high school senior uses the spirit of grinding through practice problems to govern the universe.
The Heavenly Lord said: The Dao is found even in filth.
The First Ancestor annotated: The Heavenly Lord means that the Dao is everywhere.

The emotions are described very delicately, making it easy for people to resonate emotionally.
It's worth a look and a look at it.
It's okay, it's bland and more everyday, quite warm.
What can I say? This book is more about daily life, not as conquest and killing as I thought.
