Primordial Era: I, Wutu, govern the Earthly Dao and suppress the Heavenly Dao.

Reborn as Zhen Yuanzi, the mighty Ancestor of Earth Immortals at the dawn of the primordial world, Wutu possesses boundless power and the virtually impenetrable Earth Book defensive array. Yet, beneath the absolute dominion of the Heavenly Dao, even the strongest exist merely as pawns destined to suffer when the Great Tribulations arrive. In the original fate of the Journey to the West, despite his peerless status, Zhen Yuanzi was reduced to a compliant figure manipulated by Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao to facilitate the rise of the West—forced to watch helplessly as his sacred Ginseng Fruit Tree was uprooted by a mere monkey, and reduced to bowing before those far beneath him. No longer. Awakened at the very genesis of heaven and earth as the primordial embodiment of Wu Earth and a supreme innate saint, Wutu refuses to bow to the heavens. Armed with unrivaled innate treasures and absolute mastery over the Earthly Dao, he vows to rewrite destiny, shatter the shackles of the Heavenly Dao, and establish an era where he alone governs the earth.
