Copper Bell Country

The Tongling Kingdom is an absolute monarchy that combines politics and religion. Its core law is "with the bell as the heart and the sword as the bone." His rule relied on the strict "Bronze Bell Code", which highly integrated imperial power with Buddhism and established an all-round control system from thought to behavior. The country is currently in deep trouble due to financial crisis, official corruption, and poverty at the bottom. The rulers even use the "Black Pool Water" ritual to mentally control the people. Through the persistence of Yan Chen, the guardian of the old order, and the awakening of Ali, a young man from the bottom, the story shows the country's "Great Awakening" and the game of order that broke out under extremely repressive rule.
