(This book is unfinished and abandoned. Don't click in.) In an otherworld where steampunk, cultivation, and magical civilizations collide, Zhou Chu is reborn as an apostle serving the Netherworld Goddess. Immediately after his rebirth, he gets caught up in a vampire conspiracy to overthrow the empire and in their civil war.
The modernist faction seeks to resurrect their progenitor, while the reclusive faction clings to the ancient laws of isolation. He contends with Yuan, a floating city from the East; schemes against corrupt bishops of the Church; and trades tricks and bargains with devils from Hell.
As those possessed by fragments of the progenitor's soul begin to transform, contracts with devils, surveillance and tests aboard the cosmic shuttle, and the Church's hunt leave Zhou Chu dancing on a knife's edge at every turn.
Every choice leads to a more chaotic and uncertain future.
And countless other unknown forces are watching from the shadows: the ancient Old Gods who vanished in the distant past, the New Gods of the present, and more races and powers about to step onto the stage.
