The moment the spirit veins burst through Earth, humanity finally understood: myths aren’t legends. They are an extinction-level disaster, but also an opportunity to defy heaven!
Monsters from the Classic of Mountains and Seas trample steel-and-concrete jungles. The phantoms of ancient gods loom above cities. Rifts to the Netherworld swallow billions of people. The guns and cannons of the old era are reduced to scrap, and spirit veins become humanity’s only bargaining chip for survival!
But humanity has never been content to be ants! A food-delivery worker awakens the bloodline of Kuafu and withstands the Netherworld catastrophe with a mortal body. A retired soldier gives his all, using Zhurong’s fire to purify the spirit veins. Farmers use their lifeblood to cultivate vast fields of spiritual plants and keep the frontline supplied. Scholars risk their lives to protect ancient texts, preserving the spark of resistance for humanity. Even the ladies doing square dancing can form arrays to erect barriers around the spirit veins!
There are no gods by birth, only people who dare to fight! When Chiyou’s remnant soul breaks free alongside the Netherworld’s ruler, and the Heaven-Burning Alliance sparks civil war, humanity has nowhere left to retreat! Millions chant a declaration of righteousness, and as the spirit veins resonate, billions of ordinary people become gods! This is a battle for the survival of civilization, and an epic tale of humanity breaking through the heavens with mortal bodies! As long as even one person remains standing, human civilization will never go out!
