Fired salesman Cao Dan awakens the bloodline of Shennong by chance. Guided by a mysterious old man and equipped with eyes that can see through medicinal properties and energy pulses, he rises all the way from setting up stalls in the night market to taking the crown and becoming a god. He falls in love with Wen Zhixia, the daughter of the Wen family, and together they fight against the Star-Picking Society—which has monitored the Shennong seed for ten thousand years—only to be told that the heavenly split is imminent and the sky is about to be mended. After clearing one hundred and eight meridians, he suddenly realizes that he is the last piece of five-colored stone left by Nüwa for mending the heavens: using his body as a catalyst, he brews the Heaven-Covering Soup. The heavens are mended, but his physical body turns into points of light, leaving only the Heavenly Star Grass to protect a wisp of his residual soul. Wen Zhixia tearfully embarks on the path of finding three magical herbs, praying only for his return.
