“Heaven and earth steal from all things; all things steal from humanity; humanity steals from all things.”
“When the Three Thieves are in harmony, the Three Powers are at peace.”
Ye Qin was reborn in a modern city, only to become a badly injured little snake deep in the mountains. Near death, it had no System, but discovered that it possessed extraordinary insight and an innate affinity with nature, allowing it to understand all things!
By chance, it found shelter in a mountain cave, where a hundred-year-old skeleton lay.
Hear the Dao in the morning, and you can die content that evening!
Ye Qin grasped the concept of “Contemplating the White Bones.” By meditating on the skeleton, it strengthened its serpentine body and embarked on a path of evolution where it alone wielded the laws, the only supernatural being in existence!
There are no seasons in the mountains, and years pass unnoticed in cultivation.
Without realizing it, Ye Qin grew legs and scales, slithered through the forests, and soared over mountain peaks. Myth became reality, leaving behind all kinds of legends in the nearby villages and towns.
Then one day, a national documentary film crew followed the legends to the area. They were passing through the mountains when a torrential thunderstorm broke out, so they took shelter in their tent. Suddenly, a deafening roar rang out. A colossal silhouette soared from the depths of the mountains, bathed in thunder high in the heavens and rolling through the clouds!
“Today, I bathe in thunder, transform into a jiao, and become the ancestor of demons!”
(P.S. A mythic-beast evolution story mixed with urban cultivation: the first “demon” on Earth.)
