Summary

The modern man Li Yuan, terminally ill, spends his entire fortune visiting famous mountains to practice fragmentary Daoist arts, and with only the Turtle Breath Art he enters meditation to extend his life by five years. The strange jade disc he carries suddenly shatters, sending him into the chaotic Primordial World, where he witnesses Pangu splitting heaven and earth and the fall of three thousand demons with his own eyes. Reborn in the Primordial World as a wisp of consciousness, he takes Daoist Ancestor Hongjun as his master, establishes an island and opens a doctrine on Penglai, and founds a great teaching. Thereafter, through the war of the three clans, the calamity of the witches and demons, Nüwa's creation of humanity, the age of the sages, and the Investiture of the Gods calamity, Li Yuan as patriarch of a teaching maneuvers among the sages, with all heavens rising and falling in his laughter and immeasurable kalpas arising in a single thought.

Editor's review

A typical Primordial World-style settlement-and-founding cultivation novel, running from Pangu's creation all the way to the Investiture of the Gods calamity, with a densely packed timeline; the Penglai patriarch maneuvering among the sages delivers the expected catharsis. Suited to readers who enjoy a protagonist reshaping the classic mythological framework. Its weaknesses are that the early terminal-illness pursuit of the Dao connects somewhat awkwardly to the Primordial World main line, with exaggerated power levels and jumpy plotting; readers demanding rigorous adherence to the source mythology may find it rough.

Reading tips

  1. Read the first two chapters first to familiarize yourself with why Li Yuan transmigrates and the worldbuilding of Pangu's creation.
  2. Don't fret over the details of each mythological battle; follow the main line of the protagonist founding his teaching on Penglai and maneuvering among the sages.
  3. At classic milestones such as the witch-demon calamity and the Investiture of the Gods, you may cross-reference the source mythology to sort out the timeline yourself.

Wan Jiu Author

Wan Jiu is a web-fiction author about whom limited public information is available; the only known work is Honghuang: The Primordial Supremacy. Judging from this representative title and its common categories, Wan Jiu writes mainly for male readers, within the Eastern fantasy and Honghuang (primordial mythology) tradition. Such works usually draw on ancient Chinese myth and a primordial worldview, unfolding immortal cultivation, conflicts among gods and demons, and struggles between sect powers, with emphasis on realm advancement and the protagonist's growth. Since only one work is included in the database, it is not yet possible to form a complete picture of the author's writing. Information about nationality, life, and creative experience is likewise limited, with nothing currently confirmable. The available clues suggest that Wan Jiu focuses on building a grand primordial background and fantasy narrative, which may appeal to readers who enjoy Eastern mythological systems and cultivation settings. Further developments and stylistic changes await more works for observation.
