The gods of Kunlun are high in the clouds, harvesting mortals with "blood tax" and maintaining eternal life with the flesh and blood of living people. In the Valley of the Abandoned People, which has been forgotten by official history, the young Emperor Yue has a strange eye in his belly, which can carve strange beasts from the mountains and seas into his flesh and borrow their power.
But every time you become stronger, you have to pay a price: hearing, lifespan, and historical memory.
After his adoptive father Panjun died at the hands of an angel, Diyue walked out of the canyon with Li Kuan, a straightforward but assertive man, and Guokui, a monster with eyes under his armpits and who never had enough to eat. From the Changye of Youdu to the Tenth Day of Fusang, from Jianmu in the Southern Wilderness to the cities of Middle-earth, they united with the ethnic groups that had been expelled, transformed and forgotten by the divine authority to challenge Kunlun.
However, as each godhead was devoured by the belly eye, Di Yue gradually discovered that he was not an ordinary successor to the lost throne, but a container prepared by the ancient emperor to return to the world.
What awaits him at the top of Kunlun is not just revenge.
If he ascends to the throne of God, he can restore everything he has lost and make the world surrender again; if he destroys the divine power, he will also lose his name, memory, and the people he once fought so hard to protect.
When everyone is waiting for a new emperor to save the world, Di Yue must decide whether he wants to take back the throne or let no one in the world have to kneel down.
