After Nuwa created humanity, humans were weak and grew beneath the protection of the Sages. In time, humanity grew stronger, producing powerful figures like Fuxi and Xuanyuan. They gained the ability to protect themselves in this world and the means to contend with other races. Later, when the Sages no longer appeared, the world revered immortals, demons, gods, and Buddhas. The demon race was vicious and fed on humans, while beasts were cruel and lacked intelligence. In the end, with the help of immortals and demons, humans rose above all living things and became the masters of this world. To thank the immortals and demons who had helped them, people built statues and temples in their honor, worshiped them, and placed their faith in them. In turn, the immortals and demons protected humanity, allowing people to live in peace. Their legends were passed down among the people. Is this the mythology you know, everything you’ve heard? What a beautiful tale it is. But alas, a story is still only a story. The truth cannot be buried. I will uncover it all and show you what really happened. I will tell you what an immortal is, what a demon is, and what a Buddha is.
