When Xie Nian transmigrated, her parents were forcing her to sign a school withdrawal agreement.
She had finally gotten away from them and returned to school, only for a classmate to smash a Nuo mask into her face. "Useless trash belongs in the dirt! A hundred-percent match with a false god, and you still think you deserve to become a god's chosen?"
A false god?
Xie Nian stared at the Nuo mask that had rolled to her feet. This was a proper Nuo mask!
Xie Nian bit her finger and used her blood to open the mask's eyes. "The gods you beg on your knees are nothing but scraps in the back of my Chinese pantheon, too insignificant to bother turning the page for."
"Today, I'll show you all what the Chinese pantheon is!"

In this high-risk world, the supernatural ran rampant and faith reigned supreme. People worshipped the gods in the temples, becoming one-in-a-million god-chosen. By wearing the gods' masks, the chosen could wield divine power.
But though the temples housed tens of thousands of gods, not a single one was Chinese. Here, Chinese gods were unknown and dismissed as false gods.
Until
When supernatural beings invaded during the new recruits' military training, everyone was screaming for their parents. Xie Nian simply tapped her Nuo mask, performed the Yu step, and summoned the Gates of the Ghost City of Fengdu. In an instant, a hundred thousand Yin soldiers wiped out every supernatural creature!
When a famine spirit ravaged a thousand miles of land and tens of thousands knelt to beg the Harvest God for help, only to receive no answer, Xie Nian summoned the power of Hou Ji, the Chinese god of agriculture, using the Chinese pantheon. He ended the famine. In a single night, barren wasteland became fertile soil, laden with crops and ripe for a bountiful harvest.
Thanks to Xie Nian, the Chinese pantheon began to shine, and more and more people changed their faith.
As worship of the temples dwindled, the gods descended in their true forms and condemned Xie Nian for "blasphemy," unleashing divine punishment that would doom the entire world.
The holy mountain collapsed. Living things perished, the land was devastated, and all creation knelt and wept, begging the gods for mercy.
But Xie Nian tore apart the gods' masks and held up the Chinese pantheon, painting countless totems in the air
In an instant, heaven and earth changed color. The gods' corpses burned to ash as the phantoms of China's myriad immortals trampled the temples of this world:
"You foreign gods... who dares to condemn the god-chosen of China?!"
