The Romance of Long Yao Dingding

In the third year of Yong'an, the underground turbid veins spread across the world with the power of the old gods. The gods protect the common people with talismanic water, but secretly monopolize the vitality of the spiritual earth, making the people rely on miracles for generations and lose the basis for self-help. The orphan Chen Huaichen was born with yin and yang eyes, which can see the evil veins deep in the earth. In his heart is hidden the jade of humanity left by the ancient ancestors who defeated the gods. He set out from Qingshi Village and traveled through the ruins of Dead Town, where he saw all living beings trapped in the gentle cage woven by the gods. He does not seek for ascension or supernatural power, but only spreads sparks in the world, dismantles altars, cuts off the incense, breaks the turbid miasma, summons the guardians from all over the world, and cuts off the channels through which the old gods of Tianmen absorb the people. If the way of heaven is not working, then man will make his own decisions for heaven; if the destiny of heaven is uncertain, then man will make his own decisions. One day, the merits of all peoples will be used to build a star monument of humanity, and mortals will stand on their own without the need for heaven to confer gods.
