[Turn It Over to the State + Ensemble Cast + No Harem + Over-the-Top Power Fantasy + Rousing and Heartfelt]
When disaster strikes, Chen Xingliao watches his fellow countrymen voluntarily leave the shelters one by one to conserve resources...
Only then does he understand that what China has always believed in isn't its history. It's the age-old conviction, in the face of hardship, that only we can solve our own problems.
Given a second life, he gains the ability to use himself as an anchor to travel through history. Without hesitation, he turns himself over to the state so they can fight the disaster together.
Just as he is preparing to communicate with the past and rekindle the spirit of China, he discovers that the figures standing before him are:
“Emperor Hongwu of Great Ming, Zhu Yuanzhang: ascending through the Path of Artifice, wielding technology that rivals the heavens, and replacing divine powers with science!”
“Emperor Taizong of Great Tang, Li Shimin: opening the heavens through martial arts, becoming a saint in the flesh, and ushering in a golden age of High Martial arts for mortals!”
“Emperor Gaozu of Great Han, Liu Bang: creating spirits and forging gods, ruling the underworld of heroic souls, and building the gods of Han from the souls of the people!”
“First Emperor of Great Qin, Ying Zheng: seeking immortals to establish order, commanding them with imperial power, and ruling the Path of Immortals through his dynasty!”
“King Di Xin of the Shang Dynasty, in the prehistoric age: waging war on the gods and defying them as a human king, bringing the old order of the primordial world to an end!”
When Chen Xingliao realizes that this disaster has engulfed all of China, he stands atop the Great Wall among the stars and stares coldly into the vast cosmos. “China lies ahead. Any who dare invade will be destroyed!”
