Ye Chen was just an ordinary college student, until the calendar hanging in his home suddenly began to seep thick, sticky blood, and the dates on it started moving backward in a bizarre fashion. The city descended into chaos as countless strange entities began terrorizing the world: elevators devoured their passengers, and reflections in mirrors could strangle people to death. Ye Chen discovered that killing these entities granted him their "essence," and that he alone could consume it. With every entity he killed, his abilities grew more uncanny, and his body changed irreversibly. Only when the entire world had been overrun by the strange did Ye Chen realize he wasn't the chosen one. He was a "vessel" selected by Earth's will to contain every entity, meant to sacrifice himself so that Earth could awaken. Ye Chen refused to be a sacrifice. He decided to absorb the essence of every entity and become an existence more powerful than Earth's will. Countless years later, all the entities had perished, Earth's will finally awakened, and Ye Chen became the world's one true god.
