About This Novel
"When the moon eclipses and there is no light, a true dragon is seen in the ashes." The Five Elements Dragon Vein, which appears once every thousand years, is the lifeblood that maintains the world and the underworld. The dragon soul hosts of the five colors of red, black, green, gold, and white correspond to the powers of burning the city, opening the secluded world, healing, forging armor, and cutting off karma respectively. However, those who awaken the dragon veins will be eroded by the "bone-corroding miasma" - it is the resentment scattered when the ancient true dragon tears apart the soul. Only the five dragons can purify it by working together. The "Tiandial Group" lurking in the dark is hunting dragon souls in the name of technology and refining the dragon souls into weapons of immortality. Paradox of redemption: The combination of five dragons can complement the soul of the true dragon, but it requires the sacrifice of the soul of the host, which is a metaphor for the philosophical dilemma of "saving the world requires destroying oneself first" Technological alienation: Tiandial Group uses gene editing technology to create "artificial dragon veins", transplants red scales into weapons, and transforms green chalcedony into biochips Closed loop of time and space: Lu Zhen gradually discovered in three reincarnations that he was not only a witness to history, but also a "human eclipse moon" transformed by the resentment of the first generation of true dragons. Eclipse: It not only refers to the miasma of the netherworld that erodes the dragon clan, but also metaphors the souls of the protagonists that are gnawed by fate. The scalpel under the moonlight in the hospital of the Republic of China and the genetic map in the modern laboratory all reflect the fragmentation of the dragon bloodline. Ember: The ashes after the red dragon burned the city gave birth to new dragon veins, and the light dust erupted when the green chalcedony collapsed reshaped time and space. Xie Cangming was reborn in "Ember" every time he was reincarnated, echoing the Eastern concept of reincarnation of "living towards death" Bones and Scales: From the red scales on Lizhen's arms, the white bones of the Yanhui sword blade, to the dragon spine embedded in Zhou Yanzhi's spine, physical alienation symbolizes the discipline of power on life.
