Jiang Yuan, an ordinary person from Earth, finds himself transported to another world, becoming a different Jiang Yuan in a realm filled with mystery and fantasy. In this world, individuals can cultivate their abilities to perform feats as miraculous as turning rivers and capturing the stars. However, Jiang Yuan's existence in this new world is far from stable. He inherits the identity and a series of troubles and challenges of his predecessor.
In the beginning, Jiang Yuan only wants to fully enjoy his new life, but fate doesn't afford him much respite. By a stroke of luck, he acquires a mysterious wooden carving, which seems to conceal the deep secrets of this world...
If I stand with humanity, then humanity shall flourish for hundreds of generations without end!
If I enter the path of demons, demonic flames will surge, and oceans of blood will flow!
As a sage, I shall help all beings, offering salvation to the world!
As an emperor, I shall be revered, with all directions submitting to me alone!
As an enlightened one, I shall follow in the footsteps of the sages before me, singing a war song of a prosperous yet melancholic era, shedding blood on the path to immortality!

Watching Ji Ziqing and the Imperial Teacher exchange smiles as if they were two foxes, one big and one small, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but shake his head. He also understood the Imperial Teacher's intention and sighed slightly. Jiang Yuan spoke up, "Master, I can't say much about Ziqing's origins, but I can assure you that Ziqing will absolutely not pose any threat to the Sacred Temple of Light. I can guarantee this with my life."
The Imperial Teacher laughed, "You little rascal, there's no need for your guarantee. You underestimate our Sacred Temple of Light. Even a Divine King must tread carefully in our Sacred Temple of Light. Though Ji Ziqing's origins are mysterious and her cultivation is limited, even if she were to undergo a transformation like a phoenix reborn from ashes, she still might not be able to harm our Sacred Temple of Light."
