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 sound of flowing water seemed to fill the air.


Lu Xuan looked over in confusion but saw no stream, only a vast, long river stretching across the heavens, high above the clouds.


The next moment, the eastern sky was layered with a purple glow. Then, a surge of violet qi rushed forth, its beginning and end both invisible.


"Ascend to the heavens," the Old Master said calmly. The vast violet qi from the east spread out beneath their feet, transforming into a heaven-reaching staircase shimmering with a treasured light.


Lu Xuan and the others followed behind him, stepping onto the violet qi staircase and ascending to the heavens one step at a time.


Upon reaching the Celestial Vault, high above the clouds and amid the vast river,


Lu Xuan saw countless stars adorning the sky above. Their celestial sphere was one of Perfection, boundless and infinite. He suddenly stopped and gazed quietly.
