Zhang Chi, a young man absorbed in virtual games, embarks on an ancient adventure designed to let players experience the creation of heaven and earth firsthand. Through the many hardships life throws at him, he keeps challenging himself, ultimately rising from adversity like a phoenix and gaining a new life. Set against the desolate backdrop of ancient times, the novel explores how harsh reality tempers human nature, awakens humanity’s creative potential, and fuels an unyielding desire to conquer the future. It encourages young people caught up in online games and virtual worlds to reflect on what they experience in games, cherish how hard-won every part of life is, and value the love passed down through their families. A novel cannot change reality, but I hope it can help anyone feeling lost find something to relate to. This is my first novel. I hesitated for a long time before writing it, so I hope you’ll be patient with me. I also sincerely welcome advice from experienced writers.
