Live Long and Prosper – Cdrama’s director, cast, plot and streaming details
CHINESE TITLE — 咸鱼飞升 (aka Xian Yu Fei Sheng)
Adapted from web novel 咸鱼飞升 (Xian Yu Fei Sheng) written by 重关暗度 (Zhong Guan An Du).
PLOT
In his previous life, Song Qian Ji (played by Dylan Wang) exhausted his very life in the relentless struggle to outdo everyone. As a rogue cultivator with shattered spiritual roots, to avoid being trampled upon, he had no choice but to be ruthless to others and even more merciless to himself.
He slaughtered his way through the Thousand Canals Ancient Tomb, ventured eight times into the deadly secret realms of the Dead Sea, and faced countless near-death experiences, finally ascending to the rank of a Deity Transformation mighty expert.
Just when he had arduously reached the pinnacle of his life, the apocalypse descended upon the world. Song Qian Ji scoured ancient texts and slaughtered through secret realms, ultimately finding the treasure capable of saving the world.
Yet, no one in the world believed him; even his beloved turned against him at the critical moment, forcing him to self-destruct and meet his end.
In this life, reborn and returned, Song Qianji is determined to be a loafer. However, the great opportunities he could never obtain in his past life now forcefully come knocking at his door.
He declines the lucrative recruitment offers from immortal sects, refuses the apprenticeship under the Three Saints, and severs the emotional ties with his former beloved. All he desires is to lie flat, farm the land, and live a happy life.
But with immortal sects oppressing the people and the world in chaos, how can one remain aloof and unaffected?
Sects covet what he has, the Sky Pillar Tree withers, and the Faceless Demon Physician emerges. Eventually, someone must wield the sword of justice to slay demons and vanquish evil.
Moreover, with loyal friends and confidants willing to follow him through life and death, even if he must sacrifice himself to prove the Dao, this human world is still worth fighting for.
