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]

Zhang Jiao, Zhang Liang, and Zhang Bao sat to the side of the Daoist Temple. After each saluted the Old Temple Master, they began to talk calmly amongst themselves.


"This world... is about to fall into chaos."


Zhang Jiao sighed softly, "These past few years, we've traveled through ninety-seven cities, and all we've seen are starving people..."


Beside him, Zhang Bao said in a low voice, "Big Brother, an age of chaos is imminent but not yet upon us. I've heard that a Great Daoist on Dragon Tiger Mountain has established the Celestial Master Dao. What if we go learn their Dharma?"


He paused, then let out a slow breath. "Big Brother, you were born with inherent knowledge. In just a few short decades, you've already approached a state of near-immortality. I hear that Zhang Daoling of the Celestial Master Dao has an impressive background. Perhaps..."


The Old Temple Master raised his eyelids slightly. 'Senior Brother Zhang, is it...'
