About This Game

Primordial Year 1: Origin

In the beginning of Hongmeng (Primal Chaos), Pangu was born. Absorbing the most potent primordial energy (Yuanqi), his divine power was boundless. Yet, he sacrificed himself, transforming his body into all creation (Yanhua Wanwu), establishing the Human Realm (Renjie) as the greatest natural world.

Millionth Year of Hongmeng: The First Ancient Gods Emerge

After a million years, the primordial energy surged again, giving birth to the first generation of Ancient Gods (Gushen). Among them, the most powerful were few: Fuxi, Nuwa, Donghuang Taiyi, and Tianmo (the Celestial Demon).

Two Millionth Year of Hongmeng: The Second Ancient Gods Emerge

In the final surge of primordial energy, the second generation of Ancient Gods was born. Possessing less Hongmeng Qi, they were weaker, like Kua Fu, Xingtian, and Huang Niao. They could only depend on the powerful first-generation gods.

2.2 Millionth Year of Hongmeng: Conflict

After eons, changes stirred within the hearts of the gods, especially Tianmo. He grew stronger by devouring space itself, becoming a public enemy. The gods battled Tianmo in the Outer Cosmos (Yuwai Xingkong). The war was brutal; many gods perished (giving rise to realms like the Demon Realm (Yaojie) and Ghost Realm (Guijie)). However, Tianmo's power exceeded their imagination. In the end, the gods could only combine their strength to seal him within the Outer Cosmos.

Year 1 of the Primordial Era: The Reckoning Begins

The gods settled in the Human Realm, forming various tribes. Thus began the true reckoning of years – the Primordial Era (Honghuang Li).

Year 100 of the Primordial Era: War Persists

Peace did not last. The Jiuli Tribe, followers of Tianmo, fiercely occupied their territory. The great tribes engaged in open and secret struggles, especially the five tribes of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. True peace eluded the Human Realm.

Year 1000 of the Primordial Era: The Millennium Disaster

Merely a thousand years passed before Tianmo's seal weakened. Seizing the opportunity, Tianmo leaked vast amounts of demonic energy (Moqi) through the cracks into the mortal world. The first Chiyou of the Jiuli tribe absorbed much of this energy, his power (Xiuwei) multiplying immensely. Under Chiyou's command, the Jiuli became invincible and unstoppable (Gongwubuke, Shirupozhu). Reluctantly, the Five Great Tribes formed an alliance to resist the mighty Chiyou, but they could merely hold back the invasion, resulting in a stalemate.

Year 1506 of the Primordial Era: Nuwa Creates Humans

To counter Chiyou, Nuwa, leader of the Earth Tribe, proposed the "Plan of the Five Virtues Body" (Wude Zhi Ti). Using the unifying power of the Five Elements (Wuxing Heyi), she would mold humans from clay (Nietu Zaoren). However, Chiyou would not allow this plan to succeed and launched another war against the Five Great Tribes.
