晨色暮鴉

The river of history underwent an unknown mutation, sinking into the reflection of the present world; ancient heavenly sovereigns awoke from bygone eras, chasing forbidden secrets, wielding great powers with time as the chessboard and all beings as pieces, laying out schemes across millennia. The ancient legends, folk ghosts, and once-worshipped heroes familiar to people mutated and twisted, becoming strange entities sunk into the abyss of the past. Once wise and mighty emperors transformed into dragons circling above empires, their aged and massive bodies craving the fruit of immortality, their dragon saliva turning into demons that devoured the common people. Heroic warriors who died in battle revived among piles of corpses under candlelight, establishing the Corpse-Release Kingdom by the Red Water River, while the ancient hag gazed at the moon and sighed deeply. Horse-Face Silkworm Maid, Starly Tai Sui, the Old Heavenly Court, the Silver Dynasty... countless mutated realms vie to cross to the other shore of the present world. Only the Historian can flow backward through time, excise the mutation, extract historical skills and historical relics from the river of history, and even usurp the great deeds of the most ancient heroes, inscribing oneself into antiquity. Jiang Yan, who resigned and returned home, accidentally heard the river of history’s lamentation after stumbling upon Rice God’s ritual, awakening his historical talent—the embryo of a dark mother goddess who bears countless offspring, turning all mutations into nourishment to give birth to “offspring” such as spirit pets, skills, memories, and rules, all under his control. From the Corpse-Release Kingdom he nurtures the Corpse-Release Phoenix, from the Taiping Kingdom he nurtures the God of Taiping... Jiang Yan gazed at the mutated river of history and sighed: “If the river of history could be turned into nourishment, perhaps one could truly give birth to a...” “Forbidden Immortal Deity!”
