The Sacred Age of Honghuang

Set against the backdrop of the Primordial World, with original stories spanning the heavens.

Taishang: The Great Dao is boundless, supreme and one. A single thought is the Dao; with a thought, billions of times and spaces are reshaped.

Yuanshi: Uphold the Way of Heaven, know the origins of the past, and govern all that exists in the present. This is the order of the Dao. Yet the Great Dao can never truly be attained. What can be attained is called virtue, not the Dao.

Kunpeng: Riding the order of Heaven and Earth and mastering the transformations of the six forces, I roam without limit. May Heaven and Earth live alongside me, and all things become one with me. My heart, too, is the Dao.

Fuxi: I observe the signs in the heavens and the patterns on the earth. I see that the Great Ultimate gives birth to the Two Forces, the Two Forces give birth to the Four Images, and the Four Images give birth to the Eight Trigrams... They can contain all things.

Nuwa: Ahem~ー(￣~￣)ξ

Hongjun: “...”

Meanwhile, on the Xuanhuang Continent, Ye Tian awakens from a dream.

As he faces an immense, alien universe, traces of the sacred past keep appearing before him.

Gazing up at the boundless starry sky, he says he has no desire in this life to become a supreme ruler or the founder of an order. All he asks is:

“One day, may I roam freely through the universe, travel across the past, present, and future, wander through the six directions and eight wildernesses, and embrace the moon, enduring forever.”

Yet in the alien Heavenly Court above the continent,

the gods have long been imprisoned. Even the Heavenly Emperor has become a prisoner, while icy chains of divine restraint cruelly pierce the spines of the gods...

He does not want to be drawn into the approaching whispers of chaos, yet all around him, forces continue to hold him in check. Sects and noble houses, feuds in the imperial capital, family bonds and romance: how will he resolve them?

It all begins with a confrontation at the palace's marriage selection. Ye Tian takes his first step toward breaking free and opens the first pseudo-Painted Skin world...

(The protagonist does not defy heaven, kill his family, fawn on others, or act like a saint. He may seem simple-minded, but he has a righteous heart. At critical moments, he is decisive and merciless, while still having his limits.)
