"Taihua Soul" takes Huashan as the core and takes "geological evolution as the nurturing of spiritual veins" as its original world view. It integrates geological science, ancient mythology and Chinese history, and tells an epic story about the symbiosis of spiritual vein protection and Chinese civilization.
Pangu's spine turned into Huashan, Huayao, the master of the spiritual veins, awakened from the core of the rock, nourishing the mountain with spiritual charm, and the ethereal spiritual mirror resisted the chaotic turbid rock demon and started to protect it for hundreds of millions of years. The Cangshi clan has protected the mountain for generations, and made a blood pact with Lingmai that "people protect the mountain, and the mountain gives life to people", and use the blood sacrifice of their ancestors to awaken the sleeping Huayao. Huayao connected with the spiritual veins of the Five Mountains, awakened the Hongmeng Guardian Seal, and defeated the turbid rock demon many times. In order to protect the spiritual veins, Huayao was seriously injured and fell asleep several times, shortening his life span.
Emperor Yan tasted grass in Huashan Mountain to help the world, and Shennong's aura was integrated into his spiritual veins; Xuanyuan asked Yuntai to understand the way of symbiosis, and used jade to seal Huayao's hidden dangers; Gonggong angered Buzhou Mountain, causing geological drastic changes, and Huashan Mountain's dangerous landforms were finalized, and Huayao completed her transformation in her destiny and mission.
Later emperors successively enshrined Mount Huashan: Emperor Qin Shihuang visited Mount Huashan on his eastward tour and honored Mount Huashan as the Western Mountain, hoping to seize the power of spiritual veins with blood sacrifices. Huayao used his own seal for ten years to quell the chaos; Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty built a spiritual palace to pray for souls, but regretted it in his later years. Wu broke through the century-old spirit-absorbing formation and used his lifespan to compensate for the loss of spiritual veins; Emperor Guangwu restored the Han Dynasty and simplified sacrifices to appease the refugees; his loyal minister Song Hong awakened the spirit with death sacrifices, and the Protecting Yue Seal resonated with the national destiny of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
The whole book focuses on the confrontation between good and evil in spiritual veins, the interdependence and symbiosis of humans and mountains, sages helping the world, and emperors enshrining themselves in Zen. It connects the process of deep resonance between Huashan Mountain and China's national destiny, and finally interprets the soul of China in which heaven and earth coexist, protect eternity, and the family and country are united.
Purpose: Using Huashan Mountain as a spiritual totem, it interprets the symbiotic nature of heaven and earth, the interdependence of humans and mountains, and the unity of family and country as the guardian soul of China. Through the original setting of "geology is spiritual veins", the novel integrates the power of nature and the evolution of civilization, showing not only the birth of mountains, but also the protection of civilization that spans hundreds of millions of years - the symbiosis of nature and civilization: Huashan Mountain was formed from the backbone of Pangu, and the spiritual veins were bred in geological evolution. It sews science and myth together to express the deep philosophical thought of "mountains and rivers have spirits, and civilization has roots"; Individuality and mission are intertwined: Huayao, the leader of the spiritual veins, was seriously injured and fell asleep for many times to protect the mountain. The Cangshi clan sacrificed the mountain with flesh and blood, reflecting the spiritual heritage of sacrificing the individual and protecting the great cause; History and national destiny resonated: From Emperor Yan tasting grass, Xuanyuan asked, to Emperor Qin and Han Wu enshrining Zen, the choices of emperors and sages affected the rise and fall of spiritual veins, indicating that China's destiny is deeply bound to the belief in mountains and rivers. ; Guarding is faith: The whole book is ultimately sublimated to the "original intention of protecting the pulse", melting geography, history, and mythology into a cultural belief - protecting mountains and rivers is to protect civilization itself. This is not only a mountain epic, but also a spiritual song about faith, sacrifice and the continuation of civilization.
