Man is the spirit of all things, and gu are the refined fragments of the Great Dao. The ambition which blooms with the spring's morning breeze withers at the call of autumn's night.

The rising of the sun bathes the mountains in golden flame, but 'tis sunset upon the demon's time.

​A thousand years ago, Earth was a realm of immortals who could shatter mountains and command the heavens. That ended with the "Great Harvest." Synthetic robotic invaders, sent by human-descended aliens from distant galaxies, descended to strip the planet of its spiritual essence, suppressing the ancient laws of cultivation and forcing humanity into a world of machines and ignorance. ​Today, only the secret organization known as The Vanguard remembers the truth. ​Stanley McCain was their greatest weapon—a Major with a "Titan" clearance and a cultivation talent not seen in centuries. But five years ago, during a mission that went up in flames, he vanished. Found amnesiac by a simple hermit, Stanley spent the last five years as "Big Stan," a quiet construction laborer living a life of grueling poverty. He married the hermit's daughter, Sarah, only to be treated like a ghost in his own home. For two years, she refused to touch him, eventually divorcing him and stripping him of his meager house the moment she found someone "better." ​But a divorce paper was the final key to a cage he didn't know he was in. ​With a Diamond Card worth a billion dollars in his pocket and an irregularly shaped black box that only his DNA can unlock, the Major has returned. As Stanley begins to break through the forgotten stages of cultivation, he realizes the "Harvest" is starting again. From the skyscrapers of New Raven City to the hidden battlefields of the stars, Stanley must reclaim his legacy. ​He isn't just a billionaire. He isn't just a soldier. He is the last hope of a forbidden world.
