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

Chu Feng wasn’t happy, even though in the eyes of outsiders, this kind of glorious battle result was worthy of a special book since he had dealt with a fallen immortal king who was close to Heng Zun. However, he himself didn’t make a sound.


He felt somewhat disappointed and even a little uncomfortable. He sighed for the man who had looked up to heaven in Hell. It was truly pitiful. He couldn’t see any brilliance in his entire life and had to raise his head in the abyss to search for that unattainable light.


In the end, that man went to his own death and left behind his most beautiful wishes and longings, letting his longings live in the outside world. But was that still him? It was only a form of sustenance.


Thus, while all the races were discussing fervently and exclaiming in admiration, Chu Feng restrained himself. He didn’t make a sound, and it was even more impossible for him to celebrate with others.


He remained silent and didn’t say a word.
