Jiang Taiyu, a college student, falls while climbing a mountain and unexpectedly receives a great opportunity: he inherits the teachings of Yun Zhongzi, an ancient immortal. From then on, a grand journey from mortal to sage slowly unfolds, leading through the cultivation world, extraordinary practitioners of both East and West, the Celestial Court, the Great Wilderness, and the immeasurable calamity.
The Great Dao does not favor the many over the few, nor the few over the many. It is supremely fair by nature.

Thus, as long as the Saints live, the Great Dao is endlessly plundered.
