   Just started writing, come on! 😘 (Mythological reconstruction, Classic of Mountains and Seas, slow pace, not a wish-fulfillment story, ensemble cast, pseudo-fourth natural disaster, farming and management) The gods reign supreme in the heavens, their divine registers their locks, incense their taxes, and all living beings their firewood. They have long been accustomed to kneeling before the gods, unaware that each supplication is a betrayal of their future. Pangu creating the world, Nuwa mending the sky, Fuxi's Eight Trigrams… behind every story lies blood and tears. From drilling wood to make fire to the Battle of Zhuolu, from tribal survival to the severing of the heavens and earth, every step Xia Yu witnessed was never a victory for one person, but the choice of countless individuals. This is not just one person's story. This is the transformation of civilization. When civilization moves from dependence to independence, when the gods no longer cast their shadows, when the Heavenly Dao finally relinquishes its grip, can those who once groveled stand alone? Xia Yu doesn't know the answer. He is simply living in this era, leading those with the same ideals, following in the footsteps of his predecessors, and under the watchful eyes of countless gods and demons, forging his own path step by step.
