In the spring of year 6823 of the New Calendar, Lu Xuan, an unregistered resident of the Federation, hid outside a high school classroom and secretly learned a Cultivation Skill, embarking on the path of Cultivation.

On the same day, he returned home and had a dream, just as he always did. In the dream, he was in the Guardian Storage Room during the Spring and Autumn Period in Chinese history（770-481 BCE）, and the current Keeper of the Records was named Li Er, also known as Laozi.

Later, Lu Xuan dreamed that he became the succeeding Keeper of the Records, became Confucius's second teacher, became the senior brother of Zhang Daoling, the Ancestral Celestial Master, and became the honorary father of the First Emperor...

Even later, someone unearthed a roll of bamboo slips from the ground, on which an event was recorded.

"For me, the Transcendent Traits are nothing but a liability. I was confused before, but thinking it over now, it's highly likely that those traits were a factor in Taiyi and the Demon Ancestor instigating the rebellion of the Four Extremes Emperor."


"But you are different. You are a disciple of The Three Pristine Ones, which means you have the greatest backing in this world. You can bear the Transcendent Traits; you have more than enough support..."


"Of course, I won't help you for free. I want you to help me return to the throne of the Celestial Emperor. What do you say?"


Lu Xuan's brow furrowed, and he shook his head slightly.


"Elder, everything else is negotiable, but the throne of the Celestial Emperor..."
