[About This Novel]
The rain never stops, and civilization lies submerged beneath the waters. As survivors struggle against the Ark Council's lies of salvation, history student Lin Yan becomes bound to the [Mountains and Rivers Inscription System] while trapped in a desperate situation at the library.
While others fight over supplies, he watches the sea of clouds on Mount Huangshan and learns resilience. While others battle for territory, he listens to the surging Yangtze and grasps the Great Way. As the council uses technology to extract the dragon veins, he makes his body a brush, sketching the final coordinates of civilization.
“They say I'm crazy, touring mountains and rivers in the apocalypse.” Lin Yan stood atop the golden roof of the Potala Palace, with the council's defeated troops below. “But what I want to protect has never been just human lives.”
Buddha's light shines for the first time, and pine and turquoise resonate. From the Golden Summit of Mount Emei to the abyss of Guixu, he traverses the mountains and rivers of China, searching amid the ruins for the possibility of civilization's rebirth. The truth behind the apocalyptic flood is slowly revealed with every step he takes. This is both destruction and a salvation long delayed for countless ages.
