World view setting:
Time setting: Modern China in 2035, a parallel time and space where technological development and traditional beliefs are intertwined. The fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month is the day when the gate of hell opens, which becomes the beginning of the disaster.
Geographical setting: Taking West Lake in Hangzhou as the starting point, the Leifeng Pagoda underground palace is the core of the ancient seal, radiating to various mythological relics across the country. Scenes such as the Sea of Clouds in Huangshan Mountain, the Secret Realm of Zhongnan Mountain, and the Kunlun Ruins will be displayed one after another.
Basic contradictions: the conflict between technological civilization and the power of ancient myths, the ultimate test of the good and evil of human nature in the last days, and how modern humans re-understand the warning significance of ancient myths.
