This novel is a lighthearted xianxia comedy starring Mo Qichuang, an 18-year-old dropout who unexpectedly dies mid-stretch on Earth and wakes up on Rainbow Star, a fantasy world ruled by cultivators. Misidentified as a "genius," he's sent to the rundown Xianyun Sect, which consists of three ramshackle huts and a disorganized master named Yun Tianya. Their disciple ceremony disastrously blows up half the sect, highlighting the story's comedic tone from the start.
Despite scarce resources, Mo Qichuang aims to master cultivation and rebuild the sect. His hairdressing skills (inherited from Earth) become a surprising moneymaker when he opens a "spiritual haircut" stall in the cultivator market, entertaining and amusing local clients. Along the way, he befriends Bai Chuqing-another fledgling cultivator-and teams up with quirky characters to gather rare items, like the Sky-Blue Fruit, which can help him break into the true path of cultivation.
Although it leans comedic, the narrative features genuine challenges: illusions, toxic fogs, and ferocious beasts test Mo Qichuang's mettle. He's forced to rely on quick thinking and modern creativity, from rigging explosive talismans to warding off rival sect members. Meanwhile, looming threats-such as the dangerous cultivator Yao Buqi-foreshadow grander conflicts. Ultimately, Mo Qichuang's journey toward "star-level" power unfolds in a blend of slapstick mishaps, heartfelt camaraderie, and gradual personal growth.
In essence, it's a rebirth fantasy filled with humor, resourcefulness, and a hero who'd rather cut hair than cut down enemies-yet fate insists he find a way to do both.
