Han Ruins: New Words for Stealing Life

In the first year of Zhongping, the Yellow Turbans were at their wits end and Han Zuo was about to fall. Zhang Jiao went against the will of heaven and sacrificed his life's foundation and longevity to tear apart the eternal barriers of time and space, hoping to overturn the four-hundred-year-old Han Dynasty with a world of catastrophe. As soon as the sky split, not only Wagang in the late Sui Dynasty, vassal towns in the late Tang Dynasty, and the heroes of the troubled times of the past descended to the late Han Dynasty, but countless travelers from later generations were scattered across the mountains and rivers of the thirteen states. This broken land of Han Dynasty is no longer the chaos of the Three Kingdoms, but a desperate market place that swallows all living beings. Heroes descend from the sky to fight for hegemony, and visitors from other worlds rise and fall in order to survive. This natural change hides a cruel iron law: Anyone who steals lives from other worlds and hunts down his companions can lose his life, increase his fortune, and tamper with his own destiny. Thousands of miles away in the Han Ruins, heroes gathered together. Some were dormant in the countryside; some were competing for the prefectures and counties; some were slaughtering the same kind, using their bones and blood as fuel to burn their own eternal future. The order of the old dynasty collapsed, and new words arose in troubled times. When the destiny of the two Han Dynasties withered, when the chaos of the past dynasties converged, countless life-stealers gamed, fought and rose up in the ups and downs. In the end, who can rewrite the ending of the troubled times and recast the new order of the world on the remains of the Han Ruins?
