In the heart of a lush valley lay a tranquil village, untouched by the grand struggles of empires and cultivation sects that defined the world beyond its borders. Here, nestled among emerald rice paddies and meandering streams, life flowed as gently as the waters of the Ling River.

Lei Feng, a villager of no particular renown, lived a life as serene as his surroundings. His days were filled with simple tasks: tending to his small plot of land, fishing in the river, and sharing stories with fellow villagers under the ancient willow tree that had stood watch over the village for generations. His life, undisturbed by ambition or strife, was a mirror to the village itself - unremarkable, yet content.

But as the elders often said, the calmest waters hide the deepest currents. Lei Feng's uneventful existence was shattered one fateful evening. A sudden, violent storm, unlike any the village had seen, descended upon them. Thunder roared like celestial drums, and lightning tore through the sky, an angry dragon rending the heavens.

In the midst of this tempest, Lei Feng rushed to secure his modest home, ensuring his elderly parents' safety. As he braved the storm, a searing bolt of lightning struck him, enveloping his body in a blinding radiance. The last thing Lei Feng saw was the world dissolving into a vortex of light, and he felt himself being pulled into an abyss.

The villagers found him the next morning, lifeless amidst the wreckage wrought by the storm. As they mourned the humble, kind-hearted Lei Feng, little did they know that this was not the end of his story, but the beginning of a legend. For in that moment of death, Lei Feng's spirit was hurtled across the boundaries of worlds, destined to awaken in a realm where the impossible was possible, and the very stars in the sky were but steps on the path of cultivation.

This tragic end marked the first step in Lei Feng's extraordinary journey - a journey that would see him rise from a mere fallen star to a luminary that would illuminate the darkest corners of the cultivation world.
