“Chen Yu, the archaeology world's number-one slacker, just learned today that the gods, demons, monsters, and ghosts of myth and legend are all real. Worse still, they've found Earth!”
Humanity is not the crown of creation, but a remnant people fleeing under the Human Emperor's command. Tens of thousands of years ago, we hid in this barren universe and forgot cultivation, but kindled the flame of technology. The moment humanity's voice burst beyond the Milky Way, it stirred the myriad races, still locked in bitter conflict after countless eons:
The gods are furious that we betrayed our faith!
The demons crave our flesh and souls!
The monsters see us as livestock to be raised!
They branded our ancestors as “blasphemers” and nailed them to a pillar of shame. They never knew that rebellious roar was the first heartbeat of human civilization!
They unleashed divine punishment, turning Earth into a hunting ground for the myriad races and cities into living hells,
all because in this “Peach Blossom Spring,” mere mortals dared to call themselves kings!
Laser cannons cannot break a god's finger, and nuclear bombs cannot pierce the true form of a great monster! Hell descended, and flesh was reduced to mud. At the brink of despair, the Human Emperor's bloodline within Chen Yu awakened with a roar.
As the apocalypse arrives, the last band of scientists learns to use technology to decipher mythology.
When powerful human cultivators from the myriad worlds send secret scrolls across time and space, and scientists turn tribulation lightning into energy and engrave talismans into chips,
the ants bare their fangs!
“Remember, we have never bowed to the gods. We bow only to freedom!”
This is the desperate counterattack of the descendants of those who fled!
This is a god-slaying war, with technological civilization rising against the masters of myth!
“Gods and demons!” Chen Yu stood bloodied amid the ruins, pointing his sword at the heavens. “Today, humanity will be the one to lay down the rules for all races!”
