The lands of the eight directions each have their own qi; a thousand miles bring different winds and rains.
The Goddess should be safe and sound. She must be astonished to see how different the world has become.
Strange phenomena keep appearing across the Three Kingdoms, Qin, and Song eras, while the Great Dao of Qingming teeters on the brink.
Each cycle of the vast world is called a Great Cycle.
It can be understood this way: it begins with Pangu creating heaven and earth. Heaven and earth are both imbued with spirit, giving rise to humanity. Then come Zhurong and Gonggong, the Yan and Huang tribes, and the gradual succession of dynasties, along with the rise of the great ancient kingdoms. The world continues to evolve until the modern era, with its soaring data technology, ever advancing until all resources are exhausted and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is severely depleted. At last, the two become muddled together. After a long period of spiritual rest, the next Great Cycle begins, once again with Pangu creating heaven and earth.
Today, the firmament is divided into two realms. One is the Realm of Greed and Anger, the mortal world that endlessly cycles through the order of the Great Cycles.
The other is the Realm of Qingming, what mortals call the “divine realm.”
But that is not the case: gods and ghosts coexist within the Realm of Qingming.
When beings in the Realm of Greed and Anger die, their souls ascend to the Realm of Qingming, where they are sorted according to so-called “standards of right and wrong.” Those deemed good are sent to Qingzhou; the rest go to Mingzhou.
People from other worlds keep traveling back to ancient times, repeatedly disrupting the order of the Qingming universe and even directly endangering the ancients.
In the divine realm of Qingming, Xiao Nanyuan of Kunlun Jade Mountain Palace in the Supreme Pavilion, and Guanyin of the Thousand-Autumn Mirror-Water Temple, continually clean up the chaos caused by people from other worlds.
So, let us see: will the otherworldly powerhouses’ Dao prove a cut above, or will the Guanyin of the divine realm prevail?
Witness the myriad schools of thought in the Three Kingdoms, Qin, and Song eras, as warlords vie for supremacy and ambitious heroes rise in troubled times.
Today, when one prospers, all prosper; when one suffers, all suffer!
