Honghuang: A Thread of Primordial Chaos

Ji Da was an adventure blogger who grew up being fed by the kindness of strangers. While livestreaming in the Qinling Mountains, he found a pearl. Before he could finish speaking, he was struck by lightning and died. When he opened his eyes again, he had become a strand of primordial energy that had drifted through the ages since the Hongmeng era. The original consciousness had been scattered by Pangu's emergence, leaving the body to him. As Pangu created the world and drew near to death, he said, "I do owe you an apology," then flicked out countless streaks of light. Ji Da fell into a deep sleep. When he woke, he was at Return-to-Origin Mountain, in the void where the four seas converged, with the Daoist name Yuan Yi.

The laws he cultivated were unlike anyone else's. In the primordial beginning of the Hongmeng, good and evil, life and death, reality and illusion, offense and defense, yin and yang had made no distinction. Injury was healing, attack was defense, and calamity was opportunity. The moment he took human form, he stood at the peak of the Great Encompassment realm, on equal terms with Dao Ancestor Hongjun. As the Primordial World saga begins, watch how this Dao Ancestor, "Yuan Yi," fishes for leisure amid the great calamities and attains the Dao.
