Lu Chen is holding the needleless compass left by his grandfather, and his right eye is glowing with golden light with oracle bone patterns - it is the "Eye of Civilization" that awakened after being eroded by the "Tide of Oblivion". He can see the sleeping sacrificial spirits in the bronze tripod, and can touch the flying fire flowing in the Dunhuang murals. But his bloodline is a shackles: his grandfather was a "traitor" who betrayed the Ancient Culture Alliance. The compass he left behind not only pointed to the clues of the Four Directions Seal, but also contained dark secrets that could destroy civilization.
From the sacrificial illusion of the Yin Ruins ancient tomb, to the underwater bronze tripod formation in Chu Land, to the heavenly code sealed on Qin bamboo slips, Lu Chen took Lin Cang's flying staff and Chen Yan's ancient artillery to fight between the "cultural fog" and the "forgotten core". He was once tempted by the remnant soul of his grandfather, and was shaken by the sacrifice of his teammates, but when the fire of civilization ignited in his palm, and when the golden light of the four-square seal penetrated the chaotic fog, he finally understood: the real power of the ancient veins was never to devour, but to regenerate oracle bones in the ruins, and to let the sound of bronze bells awaken the forgotten souls - because civilization is immortal and continues to be protected.
This is a cultural redemption that spans thousands of years, and it is also a story about inheritance and resistance. When the dark shadow of the forgotten ancestors shrouds the earth, Lu Chen will use the light of civilization in his right eye to weave a web that can support human civilization in the gap between the memory layer of ancient culture and the real world.
