Yan Wangyou, a soul from the modern world, transmigrates into the primordial world and becomes the future Haotian, the Heavenly Emperor.
Everyone says Haotian is a puppet of the Heavenly Dao, a piece on the sages’ chessboard, doomed to be controlled by others all his life.
Armed with the primordial treasure Chaos Pearl and carrying on Pangu’s legacy, he is determined to defy fate.
He lies low at Zixiao Palace and moves among the sages; he stirs up conflict between the Wu and Demon clans and reaps the opportunities of a world in turmoil.
He claims primordial treasures, establishes his imperial foundation, and helps humanity take charge of the destiny of the human realm. He battles the strongest, subdues the Three Realms, and breaks through the layers of shackles imposed by the Heavenly Dao.
From a lowly attendant to ruler of the Three Realms, from a pawn of fate to the supreme sovereign.
