"The Romance of the Gods" is a famous ancient Chinese novel about gods and demons. The novel tells the historical story of the political chaos at the end of the Shang Dynasty and King Wu's conquest of the Shang Dynasty. The author transforms historical events into gods and demons, and attaches them to folk religions and myths and legends. Therefore, most of the stories throughout the book are descriptions of stories about immortals and Buddhas fighting each other. The novel ends with Jiang Ziya conferring the title of god and King Wu of Zhou enfeoffing the princes. As Mr. Lu Xun said: "The state is granted to repay the meritorious officials, the gods are granted to the ghosts for their merits, and the death of humans and gods is entrusted to the fate of misfortune... It is basically based on the views of alchemists.
