Lin Ye, a modern archaeological graduate student, fell into the era of chaos because of a jade artifact with a divine pattern of mending the sky - a barbaric era when Nuwa had not mended the sky and Kuafu had not chased the sun.
Here, Nuwa is the tribal leader who is obsessed with giving souls to clay figures, and Kuafu is anxious because his tribe members have been burned by the sun. The divine pattern on the palm of his hand became Lin Ye's life-saving talisman, and also involved him in the whirlpool of fate between gods and humans.
He used scientific thinking to dismantle the myth: Mending the sky is to repair energy gaps, and to find the balance of heaven and earth day by day. When Zhulong regards him as a destroyer of order, Xuangui reveals that "myth is originally a closed loop of time and space", Lin Ye must choose: should he let Nuwa waste his life, Kuafu die of thirst, and be a bystander recorder? Or go against fate and change course, using divine patterns and wisdom to rewrite the creation legend?
In the collision between science and myth, he will eventually discover that the so-called myth is nothing more than the ancestors' struggle for survival, and he has already been a part of this myth.
