Chen Dong

To rise from defeat; to revive amidst the dissipation. 
As the vast oceans turn to dust and the thunder and lightning fade away,
That strand of spiritual mist once again approaches our great world. 
With the shackles that bound our world now severed—
A whole new world of mystery and wonder awaits, 
As we turn the corner...

The Sacred Ruins
Is a story set in a post-apocalyptic world. A world that has recovered to a state that is roughly equal to our own world in terms of technology and culture, although its ancient history remains largely unknown. The story begins during the post-graduation trip of our protagonist, where he discovers some ancient ruins and witnesses “the great change”, an upheaval that changed everything. The changing earth not only brought about new, unexplored landscape but also sparked the evolution of all organisms. Plants and animals started gaining sentience and some humans obtained unimaginable powers. The legends, myths, and tales of old seemed to have suddenly come to life as the earth entered a new era where beasts and men formed factions, explored new lands and ultimately struggled for supremacy.
We follow the MC as he grows from being an eccentric young man into a badass expert warrior while meeting other funny characters and forming brotherly bonds. We watch as he falls into just as much hilarious situations as he does perilous ones, all the while wondering and slowly discovering the mysteries of this world. Just why was the world destroyed in the first place? Who or what had triggered this earth-shattering “change”? What profundities lie behind the process of evolution?

The Sacred Ruins

The old man’s face was suffused with a dark light. He really wanted to strangle him to death.


Earlier, he had felt that this child wasn’t simple and was a little monster. He had come out of the forest because he cherished his talents. But now, no matter how he looked at it, this kid wasn’t pleasing to the eye.


“You’ve already become a bad egg at such a young age. You’re still amazing when you grow up. I want to help your sect clean up so that you won’t cause a disaster in the future,”the old man said in a sinister tone. His eyes revealed a fierce light.


Chu Feng looked at him calmly. His eyes were pure and without fear.


“Forget it. This old man is already so old. Why should I be so serious with a child like you? Bring me to your family’s adults. I have something to say to them.”


The Old Man’s face was full of the aura of a generous elder. He became amiable once again.
