Beneath the glittering surface of the modern metropolis lies a mysterious world indelibly marked by the power of ancient gods. The Godslayer’s Trace takes you into this realm where fantasy and danger intertwine.
Yan Tian, a descendant of the Yan branch of the Xuanyuan clan, had been living an ordinary school life at No. 1 Middle School in Yuanyang County. His grades were poor, but he was sunny and upright. Then an unexpected encounter at the school gate with Yue Ying, a mysterious fortune-teller, left him robbed down to his underwear and turned him into a laughingstock at school. Like a butterfly flapping its wings, the incident quietly shattered his peaceful life. After he got home, his family’s strange behavior and the mysterious symbol on Huang Xuanxuan’s forehead aroused his curiosity about the secrets hidden by his clan.
Meanwhile, the Jiuli clan grew stronger by slaughtering members of other clans and seizing their totemic power. Jiuli Ye, who founded the Jiuli Group, was bent on taking the Xuanyuan clan’s totemic power and ruling the world. His younger sister, Jiu Luoluo, was ordered to infiltrate Yan Tian’s school. As she got closer to Yan Tian, she gradually fell for him, torn between her clan’s mission and her own feelings.
As Yan Tian began frequently dreaming of ancient temples, mysterious runes, and other strange scenes, golden markings appeared on his palm, drawing him ever deeper into his search for the truth. Along the way, he met Yue Ying, a descendant of the Yue clan tasked with finding the Xuanyuan clan’s prophesied divine envoy. Cool and mysterious, Yue Ying found her feelings for Yan Tian quietly changing as they spent time together.
After learning of the Jiuli clan’s scheme, Yan Tian, Huang Xuanxuan, Yue Ying, and the others embarked on a difficult journey to unite the clans and fight the Jiuli clan, in order to protect their families and the world. They investigated the Jiuli Group, only to fall into one dangerous trap after another
