The Five Turbidities descend upon the world, and demons run rampant.
Holding a copy of Strange Tales Illustrated, Song Lin transmigrates into the body of a young acolyte at a remote, unorthodox Daoist temple on the frontier.
He sees that the ancient evil miasma of the Six Heavens still lingers in this world, where shamans and ghostly arts run wild.
Demons and monsters claim official titles, the Three and Five have lost their order, and the worlds of humans and ghosts have become jumbled together.
Unorthodox sects abuse their power, abandon truth for falsehood, and allow wicked forces to flourish.
Amid humanity's suffering and the devastation of all living things, Song Lin discovers that he can enter the mythical and supernatural tales recorded in Strange Tales Illustrated to acquire Daoist arts.
Tales from the Classic of Mountains and Seas, myths and strange stories; pre-Qin qi cultivation, the Great One of Chu, scattered immortals of Penglai, witchcraft and poison arts of Lingnan, the Kunlun Immortal Mountains...
He will slay evil demons across the heavens and master countless Daoist arts.
The immortal path stretches endlessly, and I shall seek it to the end.
