Introduction to the work "Tai Shang Zhen Er Lu"
The way of heaven becomes cancerous and everything collapses. The pure spiritual energy that once protected all living beings has now turned into a filthy poisonous miasma that corrodes bones and marrow. Li Xuanchen, the "evil corpse" killed before the death of Taoist ancestors, woke up in a mass grave in the underworld. The Taishang jade plate symbolizing the orthodoxy of the Taoist sect on his waist was cracked and bleeding, causing Jiuyouyin to seek his life. He was forced to embark on a dead end path full of deformed gods, demons and twisted laws.
The Yellow River demon turtle gnaws at the ancient dragon-locking stele, the seven giant meteorite iron pillars in the depths of the imperial mausoleum imprison the wailing dragon veins, the marriage book tampered with by the red and white demons sheds blood and tears... The ancient Taoism has become a double-edged sword, and every step of the seal is accelerating the alienation of his body - the scales emerging from the palm of the hand, the pulsating compound eyes under the shoulder blades, and the yin and yang pupils are all filled with festering veins of spiritual energy. And the entropy ghost carrion hanging down from the cracks in the sky, stuck to the cold starlight, is dragging the world into an unspeakable abyss.
This is a redemption that uses flesh and blood as the altar and soul as the oil for the lamp. The remnants of the previous dynasty used evil dragons to regain their kingdom, and the Mohist government city was reduced to a melting pot of flesh and blood. The fragments of the Gods List reflect the truth of the demise of the gods. When Taoism itself becomes the focus of disease, and when those who slay demons are the worst evil in the world, Li Xuanchen can only tear out his heart and burn the scriptures, between the incarnation of the ruthless heaven and the ghost ancestor who will forever fall into the Nine Netherworld, to create a glimmer of light for the broken world.
"Tai Shang Zhen Er Lu" uses bone-cold writing to cast Taoist mystical rituals and Cthulhu-style horror. In the stars with gears, the corpses secreting mucus, and the erosion of living Taoism, it asks the price of ultimate salvation - is it to save oneself or to save the world? That jade plate that runs through the whole, with cracks and blood seeping through it, is exactly what this collapsed universe is about.
