Eight years after the national destiny trials began, the Dragon Kingdom's population of 1.4 billion has dwindled to 800 million.
Eighteen-year-old Sun Chengyue is dumped in the Red Sand Barrens with half a bran flatbread in his arms. Two vicious wolves are just four hundred paces away.
Others draw martial artists, holy knights, or elemental mages. But thanks to the unique soul of a transmigrator, he awakens the only hidden class: Cultivator!
He divines the secrets of heaven to find opportunities, slays strange beasts with flying swords, and gradually unlocks alchemy, artifact crafting, talismans, and formations. Once a day, supplies are returned ten thousandfold to the Dragon Kingdom.

From half a flatbread to a nation's own grotto-heaven.
And in this Great Wilderness, littered with ruins, where did all the people who once lived here go?
