In the dark side of modern cities, there is a dimension called "the abyss". Gods are not the supreme beings in traditional beliefs, but twisted creatures that are bred by human negative emotions. They penetrate reality through "agents" and create disasters.
The "Qingsong Sanatorium" where Lu Chen is located is actually a secret institution that fights against the gods. It takes in people with abilities who have become mentally abnormal due to contact with the gods. They suppress madness through "spiritual anchors" and use pathological cognition as a weapon to kill gods.
