More than four hundred years have passed since the turmoil in the Heavenly Palace. The myths that were once well-known to every household have gradually been covered with dust by the years, and the legend of Sun Wukong has become a vague allusion among storytellers.
At this time, the war between the heaven and the devil is raging. In order to seize the opportunity in the stalemate battle, both the gods and demons turned their attention to the human world - they began to look for mortals as their believers.
Every mortal has a chance to awaken randomly. He may awaken the soul of God, he may awaken the soul of demon, or he may not be able to awaken due to lack of qualifications. The spiritual power of the awakened person is divided into levels one to ten. The higher the level, the stronger the blessings that can be obtained from the corresponding gods and demons; the gods and demons can choose a human body in the mortal world as an agent, and they will also give half of their own power to the selected agent, using mortal hands to exert influence in the world to recruit believers.
If the awakened person wants to change their faith, it is not impossible, but the price is to empty all their mental energy, reduce their life span by 1/4, and everything has to start from scratch.
As for mortals who have not awakened the souls of gods and demons, although they cannot use the power of gods and demons, they can choose to believe in a certain god and demon and become their believers. The combined beliefs of tens of millions of believers can also provide a powerful increase in power for the corresponding gods and demons, indirectly affecting the direction of the war across the three realms.
