Loose cultivator Shi Lang gradually found himself in the realm of invincibility. However, when he finally tried to ascend to the higher realm, the spirit of the world was nearly exhausted. So, between his ascension to a new world or the well-being of his home, he chose the latter and sacrificed his life to save the world. Nobody knew what he gave up for the world, and he told no one. Although his sacrifice had gone unsung, there was still someone who witnessed everything. A treasured artifact he carried on his body preserved his soul and let it escape a tragic end. Eons passed. The human race stepped out from the age of cultivation into an age of stellar conquest. The spirit energy in the world was now scarce, but humans found other means to excel. In this highly-advanced time, Shi Lang's soul has found a chance to be reborn. What happens when an ancient cultivator that neared the level of a deity before his first death gets a second chance at life in the space age? ...

Shi Lang was hiding inside the swamp. He was not aware of the Shamanti leader had sent out the forces to comb through the area for him. He was waiting to heal his wounds and get out of this place. Then he will lure the target outside by hook or by crook.
On the other hand, the Shamantis were given only one day to find him. Have no confusion, one day meant from sunrise to sunset. The night was when predatory beasts fed, so moving through the woods was not a good idea. They will not be sacrificing themselves for a single Terran.

After an hour, Shi Lang peeked outside the swamp and found no movement around him. He was sure that while escaping, he might have left some sort of trace. He raised his head and looked at the sky. Then he thought for a bit and went back into hiding. The swamp was not too deep so, he was able to stand on the mud bed and breath through the make-shift snorkel.
