The gods held a banquet and crucified him on the altar of falling gods.
Before he died, the gods asked him: Is there anyone among the mortals you desperately protect who is willing to die for you?
There was dead silence, no one answered.
He left his soul with the last trace of disappointment - but in the modern city thousands of years later, he opened his eyes.
Reborn as a modern urban boy, he has a incomplete illustrated book of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" in his palm.
Spiritual energy revives, cracks open in the mountains and seas, and strange beasts, evil cultivators, black markets, and Zhenshan Division appear in turn.
And he can contract with all things in the mountains and seas: the evil beast with one eye and three tails, the ferocious beast that swallows incense...
When the three sutras merge into one, Xu Qi becomes a god.
Until the incense in the divine world suddenly dried up, the aloof gods finally remembered that name.
They looked toward the world with trembling eyes.
The old god who was supposed to fall into reincarnation forever is back.
After my death, the gods became afraid.
