The Complete Classic of Mountains and Seas: Atlas of the Great Wilderness

Mo Yan, the son of a Western Zhou dynasty court historian, unexpectedly inherits an incomplete original copy of the Classic of Mountains and Seas. In its pages, strange beasts take shape in living ink, revealing that the loss of the mountain and sea spirit cores will unleash a cataclysm of monstrous beasts. To restore the cores, he travels across the Five Mountains, the Great Wilderness, and the Inner Seas, encountering the nine-tailed fox of Qingqiu, the azure bird of Kunlun, and the ice chi of Youdu, while battling the Vein-Breakers who covet the spirit cores. From his first journey through the Southern Mountains to exploring the secrets of Guixu, from fighting the giant serpent at the Red River to the awakening of Zhulong, Mo Yan activates the spirit cores with his life essence. At last, he restores the barrier between the mountains and seas, and humans and strange beasts enter an age of coexistence.
