What if all the myths in the world were merely different reflections of the same source?
Zheng Yunxing, unemployed straight out of college, was delivering takeout when he was hit by a runaway truck after rushing to save a little girl crossing the road. As he lay dying, a cold metallic voice rang in his mind:
[Host detected at the brink of death. Myriad Realms Mythology Search System urgently activating… Searching… Search complete. Most compatible initial divine office identified: “China · Hou Yi.”]
[Core ability “Shooting Down the Suns” unlocked.]
[Warning: Causal threads are in violent flux. This plane’s coordinates have been exposed. Outer Gods will descend in thirty orbital cycles.]
When Hou Yi’s arrow pierced the head of Fenrir, the giant wolf of Norse mythology; when Sun Wukong’s Golden Cudgel held back Zeus’s thunderbolts; when Poseidon’s trident overturned the Bridge of Helplessness in the Underworld…
Only then did Lin Fan understand that what he had to face was not mythical creatures, but the entire shattered Myriad Realms, and the pair of cold eyes hidden behind it all.
