Spiritual energy is steadily drying up across the globe, and only the land of Huaxia still teems with it. Cultivators from beyond the borders arrive from every direction, watching covetously and repeatedly attempting to invade Huaxia.
Shen Guang, who works at a tourist attraction, happens to help a down-and-out old Taoist priest and unexpectedly inherits the Qingfeng Mingyue Taoist temple on Mount Hua Five. Overnight, he gains thirty years of cultivation, a dark purple Taoist robe, and a mysterious ancient mirror out of thin air.
Everyone else believes that Shen Guang, who has taken over this ancient temple, is a reclusive master of the Taoist sect, renowned far and wide.
Only Shen Guang knows that his true strength is still far from the Celestial Master realm.
Amid one misunderstanding after another, he studies spells with dedication while befriending fellow practitioners from all walks of life, slaying demons and upholding righteousness.
When foreign enemies mass at the borders, he shoulders the burden of defending his homeland, leads his fellow Taoists against the invaders, and ultimately attains immortality.
