Name: Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches: The Gods' Chessboard
Author: Zhixin Is a Bridge

Synopsis

The sky collapses in the northwest, and the earth sinks in the southeast. Twelve totems rise up to support the heavens and earth for all living beings. But after the heroes die, cowards steal their power. They imprison the masses through fate and use a chessboard to probe beyond their world. In the name of hope, the totems seize a variable that doesn't belong to this world. And so an utterly ordinary protagonist named Lin Zhou steps into this story.
