Features: What first attracted me to The Record of Gods and Demons was the word "Chiyou." Because we lack popular reading materials on ancient legends. A Romance of the Three Kingdoms has shaped countless heroes, but it has also left Chen Shou's Records of the Three Kingdoms for scholars to study in ivory towers, leading to the public's perception that Romance of the Three Kingdoms is the history of the Three Kingdoms period. History is written by people, and I firmly believe that if Mr. Xia Shu Naye Hu further outlines the grand panorama of Dahuang in the second part and subsequent sequels of The Record of Gods and Demons, systematically organizes the genealogies of characters based on documents like Shanhaijing, and adds comprehensive promotion today, The Record of Gods and Demons will undoubtedly become the reference for ancient history in the public's mind.

The Record of Gods and Demons not only inherits the excellent qualities of ancient Chinese fantasy works but also draws from various traditions, blending mythology, magic, martial arts, romance, geography, humanities, and ancient history into one epic narrative. It recreates the primordial era of the Chinese nation's civilization with an epic tone, reconstructing the magnificent and extraordinary Chinese mythology. Its vast philosophy, bizarre writing style, interesting language, and dramatic plots have elevated it beyond pure entertainment, leaving one in awe of the depth of Chinese culture. The work itself has become an indispensable and vividly written milestone in the history of fantasy literature. Within it, readers can see the shadows of predecessors in martial arts and fantasy, while the boundless imagination and unrestrained spirit of youth make it surpass its predecessors, solidifying the author's status as one of the two supreme fantasy kings of the new generation and establishing him as the pioneer of Eastern new mythological fantasy.
The story of The Record of Gods and Demons takes place in the primordial era of the Flame Emperor and the Yellow Emperor. That was the time when heroes vied for the Central Plains, with legendary figures like Shennong, the Yellow Emperor, Chiyou, the Queen Mother of the West, Kua Fu, Xingtian, the Fire God Zhu Rong, Chi Songzi, the Fairy of Gu She, and the Rain Master all appearing. The work features not only heroes, wandering knights,, and magical arts but also does not fall short in describing family love, friendship, romance, and grand battle scenes, rivaling the great masters of ancient and modern times.
The Ten Shang Wu of Ling Shan: The Yellow Emperor is slain, the Blue Emperor disappears, the Black Emperor flees far away, and the Red Emperor secludes himself in Dahuang. Without a leader, the dragons of Dahuang are in chaos, with ambitious figures dominating and heroes suffering. The Tu tribe is in turmoil, the Mu tribe is at war, the Huo tribe rebels, and the Shui tribe brings chaos to the world. The Holy Cup shatters, and conflicts erupt. Tuoba Ye vows to mend the heavens with a single hand. Cities burn in flames, and the passion of love is as vast as the sea. Centuries of grievances cannot be resolved overnight, and love, hatred, and emotions explode in an instant!
