A century ago, the “Gods’ Slumber” ended, and the gods descended. They granted humanity “divine grace,” a supernatural energy that only a select few, the “Godtouched,” could absorb and wield. The world was divided into “Godblessed Zones,” each protected by a different deity.
In this apocalyptic world, where the gods use “blessings” as a pretext to keep humanity penned like livestock, Lin Jin is a talentless boy judged to be “worthless.” By chance, he awakens a forbidden power that lets him “slay” gods and seize their divine authority. Forced onto a thorny path of god-slaying, he gradually uncovers the truth behind the ancient “Severing Heaven and Earth” and the fate awaiting him as the “last King of Humanity.”
