The greatest BUG in the Primordial World has appeared: Dao Ancestor Hongjun is gone.
The Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi awakens ahead of schedule and opens his eyes to a world gone completely off the rails. The immortal path has become an elective course. Some achieve sainthood by cultivating spiritual roots and planting themselves in the ground; others refine their bodies and shatter stars with a single punch. The two in the West are busy figuring out how to control all things with their thoughts.
Worse still, the Heavenly Dao is alive. Not a rule or a law, but a living being with a temper, constantly messing around and adding random new mechanics for all living things.
The Three Pure Ones are still the Three Pure Ones, but each is doing their own thing. Tongtian is obsessed with demonic killing formations, while Laozi clings to his pill furnace and stubbornly sticks to traditional craft. Fuxi has become so obsessed with drawing talismans that he's lost himself in it. Nuwa's clay creations are getting more and more outrageous. Di Jun and Taiyi are holding a meeting to discuss whether the demon race should adopt a federal system.
Everyone is crazy, but nobody thinks they're crazy.
Only Yuanshi knows: the immeasurable calamity is coming, and this time no one will stop it.
In his previous life, he upheld the rules until his body perished and his Dao vanished. In this life, he doesn't want to wait any longer.
With Hongjun gone, he'll start this game himself.
