Ning Wu is suddenly transported into a cultivation world where the strong prey on the weak, becoming the weakest little plant spirit in the realm.
At the time, the Immortal Realm is holding the 101 Celestial Gods Selection Tournament. Each contestant is randomly assigned a territory to manage for a hundred years, after which they compete in a free-for-all.
Having stumbled into the competition, Ning Wu looks at the God of War at South Heaven Gate, whose combat power is off the charts, then at the Fairy of Clear Waters, who has countless supporters, and feels that her immortal life is hopeless.
Better go home and grow sweet potatoes.
Ning Wu nervously asks, "Immortal sir, you look like a man of extraordinary talent. Could you tell me where I can withdraw from the competition?"
The immortal attendant is cold and unyielding: withdrawing without a valid reason would waste everyone's time, and is punishable by more than a hundred years of forced labor.
Ning Wu: o(╥﹏╥)o
Guess she has no choice but to give it her all.
When the tiny figure rolls up her sleeves on the immortal screen, all the immortals burst out laughing:
# She's so weak! I bet any cultivator in her territory could bully her.
# Isn't the barren Demon Abyss right next door? Let's guess how many days she'll survive.
# Wait, what is she doing? Farming? Is she just giving up already?
But no one could have guessed that, once the competition began, this tiny ginger-colored figure would become the one everyone couldn't stop watching.
# Why are the plants Ning Ning grows so big and tender? And what's this hybrid rice?
# The yellow sand used to ravage my home. My mother wanted to see an oasis before she died. If only we'd met Ning Ning back then.
# Everyone in the territory loves Ning Ning so much. Her approval rating has climbed eighty places! I have to vote for her too!
Ning Wu, former top university agriculture student, sitting on a swing by the fields, thinking every day that she's doomed: One day is hard, one day is happy. Little seedlings, let Mama pet you one more time before she kicks the bucket.

?Ten thousand years ago, the Celestial God Mu Zi, his whole body cold with frost, sacrificed himself to uphold the Dao and guard the Demon Abyss.
It was a desolate city where a million corpses lay buried beneath a shroud of demonic energy.
He thought those lonely, chaotic days would continue as they always had, for millions more years.
Until a silly little fairy arrived, her eyes bright when she smiled. She said she wanted to plant a field of sunflowers here.
