Set in a fantasy
xianxia realm where cultivators pursue the Dao in their quest for immortality,
Live Long and Prosper follows the lives of Song Qianji (
Dylan Wang). In his first life, he was the foremost figure of the cultivation world, a character marked by ambition, competitiveness, and arrogance who exhausted himself in ceaseless rivalry. Granted a second chance at life and armed with prior knowledge, he resolves to drift through existence as a carefree 'salted fish' (a euphemism for someone who wishes to '
lie flat'), adopting a detached outlook and devoting much of his energy to tending his crops. Yet, by chance, he gathers a circle of steadfast companions and is unwillingly drawn into sectarian conflict. In the end, to protect the land and people he cherishes, he reluctantly returns to cultivation (advancing through successive levels of strength and facing heavenly tribulations), leading his comrades to shoulder the burden of salvation through his very being. == Cast ==
