Back in the 1980s, seaside teen Luo Zhiyuan loses his ancestral land to his cruel brother and sister-in-law. Cornered, he saves a thousand-year hawksbill turtle and unlocks the Sea Spirit System. He contracts sea spirit creatures: beach ducks, seagulls, orcas and a colossal octopus. He strikes it rich with rare seafood. He outwits his greedy relatives, beats back local ruffians, and rescues villagers from storm surges. He meets Lin Qian, gains powerful business allies, builds deep-sea industrial chains, and turns from a poor boy into the coastal industry trailblazer.
