Gods and demons run rampant, while immortal exalted beings guard the world! Earth is a place where the Immortal Path once flourished. Yet cultivators pursued only their own selfish desires, shattering mountains and rivers and bringing this prosperous cultivation world to ruin!
The Heavenly Dao was wounded and hidden, spiritual energy vanished, and Earth entered a long age of desolation!
Billions of years later, a supernova erupted in outer space. The sudden arrival of mysterious matter drew forth the long-lost Heavenly Dao on Earth. Spiritual energy returned, and the Martial (Immortal) Dao emerged.
Yang Dongwang, an ordinary associate professor at a university, happened upon the remains of the Xuantian Pagoda, a treasure of creation left behind from the previous era. As spiritual energy was reborn, he gained an early advantage. Using fragmented memories within the little pagoda, he gradually guided the Martial (Immortal) Dao into every aspect of technological society, changing it and ushering Earth into a new era of science and martial arts.
