Su Mo transmigrates to a spiritual-plant wasteland after dying suddenly. The moment he arrives, he is trapped in a deadly 72-hour possession crisis: the only way to survive is to cultivate the Shennong Seed with his enemies' blood. Bound to a sign-in System, he must pay a price in memories for every spiritual-plant ability he gains. He trades away his memory of wound treatment to give an electromagnetic vine the power to stop bleeding with electricity, forgets Mendel's laws of inheritance to spur the Shennong Seed's evolution into nuclear-powered photosynthesis, and even his grandmother's lessons on herbal medicine are slowly fading away.
He cultivates electromagnetic vines to kill a poison-dealing shopkeeper and uses a gene-editing tree to cure the villagers' withering curse, but his loss of memories repeatedly lands him in danger. Fortunately, A He, whose body is half-mechanical vine, joins forces with him and brings genetic data from the demon realm. Together, they face the pursuit of the Immortal Realm and expose its plot to extract the memories and spiritual energy of the Nine Realms.
From spiritual fields in the wasteland to the ancient world of prehistory, from face-slapping the Heavenly Dao in a dimensional court to building a spiritual-plant internet spanning the Nine Realms, Su Mo wields plants as blades and sacrifices his memories. As he fights the alliance of immortals and demons and the God of Oblivion, he discovers that the herbal atlas his grandmother left behind holds the ultimate key to breaking it all.
