Black Myth: Tang: I Shatter the Golden Age with One Sword

In the final years of the Daye era, Heaven collapses, immortals and Buddhas fall, and gods transform into grotesque lumps of flesh.

Amid the chaos, great demons don human skin and seize the high halls, treating mortals as blood offerings and furnaces.

This is a despairing world where spiritual energy is polluted and every cultivator grows red hair.

Xu Changfeng transmigrates here and sits in a sword mound for sixty years. Bound to The Record of God-Slaying Swords, he uses the untainted poetry of his previous life to cultivate the Dao, becoming the world's one and only true Sword Immortal!

"In ten steps, I slay a man", he manifests a spatial instant-kill technique, taking a demon king's head from ten thousand li away!

"The road to Shu is harder than climbing to the blue heavens", he unfolds a sword domain with ten thousand times the gravity, suppressing a mutated Arhat!

"The great roc rises on a single gust of wind", with one sword, he splits the sky and shatters the false Jade Emperor in the Lingxiao Palace!

From the Xuanwu Gate Incident to the empress's accession; from the Kaiyuan Era's heyday to the An Lushan Rebellion.

Li Shimin reveres him as a god, Wu Zetian honors him as the Imperial Preceptor, and Li Bai regards him as an idol, vowing to lay down his brush and take up the sword.

Across the Tang dynasty's three hundred years of splendor, his name never appears in the history books. Yet the bones of the gods filling the sky are all stepping stones beneath his sword.

"I, Xu Changfeng, will defend this flourishing Tang with my sword!"
