In the age of the apocalypse, the heavens wept blood. Qin Che, humanity's God of War, fell on the battlefield at the end of the world. He could only watch as the land was shattered, his people dwindled, and billions of humans became food for the myriad races. When he opened his eyes again, he had returned a hundred years into the past, to the eve of humanity's internal strife and external threats, with its great edifice on the verge of collapse.
At this time, demonic forces were beginning to stir, while internal power struggles raged. The regrets and bloodshed of the past had yet to come, but danger was already closing in.
Given a second life, Qin Che swore he would no longer be a powerful man concerned only with his own survival. Starting from humble beginnings, he gathered the determined and won over heroes, raising the royal banner of “May humanity flourish forever” in the borderlands. He cultivated the Human Emperor's path, gathered the hopes of the people, wielded the Cauldron of Mountains and Rivers, and forged an immortal heart.
It was a blood-soaked road strewn with thorns. Within, sects carved up the land and dynasties fought for power; without, demon races ran rampant and demon gods watched from the shadows. Watch as Qin Che uses his foreknowledge to steer the course, unifies the Eight Corners with an iron fist, gathers humanity's scattered destiny, and rekindles the long-extinguished flame of the Human Emperor. In the chaotic storm of the myriad races' struggle for supremacy, he will lead humanity, frail as it is, to break through the encirclement and rule the Eight Corners!
Fate is mine to command. Humanity will rise!
