After going missing for fifteen years, Feng Yanqing returns from cultivating immortality to find Earth deeply divided.
On one hand, prodigies are everywhere, Sacred Bodies are a dime a dozen, everyone has the talent of a heaven-blessed genius, and the Great Dao is terrifying and unfathomable.
On the other, Earth's spiritual energy is thin, making cultivation difficult for its practitioners, and their methods are bizarre and varied.
Wizard academies, churches of divine masters, ancient Man Tong spirits, spirit mediums, shikigami, ninjutsu, Buddhism, Daoism, Confucianism, ghosts...
Do gods really exist in this world?
If so, where did they go?
Why did they leave?
Why did the East and West, unable to communicate in ancient times, give rise to the same myths?
In the East, Yu the Great tamed the floods; in the West, Noah built an ark.
In the East, Nüwa created humanity; in the West, God created the world.
In the East, there are the six paths of reincarnation; in the West, there is the cycle of cause and effect...
Are these all merely coincidences?
Or are they a chapter of history that was never recorded?
Pangu's creation of the world was a declaration of war against the unknown horrors...
Nüwa's martyrdom was the last protection for humanity...
Kuafu's pursuit of the sun was the giants' desperate flight...
The Investiture of the Gods marked the tragic twilight of the Qi Refiners...
Were the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors the beginning of humanity, or abandoned beings?
What secrets are hidden on Earth?
A great terror lurks behind the Earth!
