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.

[The eighteenth Keeper of the Records, Lu Xuan, his Sword Qi like a waterfall, assassinated Duke Huan of Qi in his bedchamber]

The will of heaven and earth was cold and indifferent:


In the highest reaches of the Profound Purity Realm, Taiyi gave a calm smile.


"We both know I'm plotting to take your body and soul. But there's a prerequisite for that—I first need to help you achieve the Dao Fruit, or at least a Fake Dao Fruit. So, how is that not something worth discussing?"


"For now, at least—at this very moment—we are not yet enemies. For instance, I do not wish for Amitabha to obtain the Six Paths of Reincarnation he's plotting for, and I'm willing to help you win this round."


The will of heaven and earth, which Lu Xuan had become, remained indifferent.


"Taiyi, this is meaningless. There's no need for more words between us. We just have to wait. On the day I achieve the Dao Fruit, we shall see..."


"...whether you will devour me, or I will devour you."
