"The Prequel of the Gods: The Eternal Tribulation" is a 1,500-chapter epic of gods and demons that subverts traditional mythology. The story goes back to three thousand years before Jiang Ziya became a god. The Five Realms had not yet collapsed. The young boy Ji Wuming was born with a "lifeless body". His destiny was blank and was not locked by heaven. After witnessing the village being massacred due to the "Blood Moon Demon Disaster", he took the "Fate Pattern Jade Pendant" left behind by his mother and embarked on the road to defy destiny. He went to the Defying Pavilion, practiced the "Destiny Breaking Technique", awakened the "Tribulation Eye" and got a glimpse of the truth about the Gods: the so-called Gods List is actually a "horcrux" used by heaven to harvest heroic souls and enslave all races.
In order to break the situation, he sneaked into the sect and obtained the "Hunyuan Tribulation Sutra" from the leader of the Tongtian Sect; he teamed up with the nine-tailed saint Su Daji, the wolf demon Yunli, the rebel military commander Shen Gongbao, and the Wu clan high priest Yi Heng to form the "Anti-Heaven Alliance". During the siege by the Chan Cult, the pursuit of the Heavenly Court, and the advent of the Chaos Demon God, Ji Wuming, in the name of the "Lord of Tribulation", cut off the Life Lock, shattered the Gods, and cut off the Heavenly Links. Finally, outside the Zixiao Palace, he cut off the connection between the Gods List and the Heavenly Dao with a sword, freed the imprisoned heroes, and collapsed the divine power of Haotian.
The five realms returned to chaos, and he dispersed his divine power and turned into the "wind of calamity", making a prophecy: "When a new calamity arises, there will be those who rebel against fate and reignite the war."
The work takes "Destiny can be violated" as its core, integrates the destiny system, the game of the five realms and the reincarnation of civilization, presenting a grand awakening of mortals fighting against divine power.
