Synopsis:
Ten thousand years ago, the Immortal King Muyun was plotted against because he possessed the "Heaven-Slaying Diagram," and his soul fell into a deep sleep. After ten thousand years, his residual soul awakens in the body of the infamous "waste" Muyun of the Nanyun Empire on the Tianyun Continent. Upon awakening, Muyun is immediately subjected to deliberate harassment by his student, Miao Xianyu. Muyun easily defuses Miao Xianyu's trap and, furthermore, elaborates on more alchemy techniques, earning the admiration of the alchemy master Mo Wen, who was listening outside the door. Returning home, Muyun learns about his arranged marriage with the Qin family's Miss Qin Mengyao. Qin Mengyao is afflicted with a cold poison and won't live past twenty; the marriage is merely for the benefit of both families. Under the persuasion of Mu Linchen, Muyun agrees to the marriage on the condition that he can perform alchemy. After refining the Bone Tempering Pill, Muyun's cultivation level increases for the first time. Mo Wen frequently visits Muyun for advice, while Qin Shiyu always wants Mo Wen to treat his granddaughter Qin Mengyao. Mo Wen suggests that Muyun try, and by chance, Muyun awakens the "Heaven-Slaying Diagram" within him, discovering that Qin Mengyao is not suffering from cold poison but possesses the Ice Phoenix Divine Spirit. Muyun cures Qin Mengyao, and the power of the Ice Phoenix Divine Spirit allows her cultivation to advance rapidly. Impressed by Muyun's abilities, Qin Mengyao becomes curious and interested in him, so she becomes a mentor at Beiyun Academy, teaching the same class as Muyun. Dongfang Yu, who failed to court Qin Mengyao, becomes filled with jealousy and hatred, vowing to be Muyun's enemy. Muyun leverages the "Heaven-Slaying Diagram" to break through his cultivation and goes to the Beiyun Mountains for training. Miao Xianyu insists on accompanying him. During the journey, Muyun single-handedly hunts down over a dozen purple-furred hunting wolves, astonishing Miao Xianyu. Meanwhile, the four assassins of Mount Liu, hired to kill Muyun, follow them, waiting for an opportunity to strike when Muyun is exhausted.
