In the depths of the East Sea, on the night of the beautiful Dragon Princess's transformation, she changed from a lovely little fish into a green little dragon. Azure Sky might be the smallest dragon in the world, her true form only three inches long, about the size of a chopstick. Although she was not satisfied with her new body, she could finally leave the Dragon Palace alone and go ashore to see the world. However, in a hundred years of life, that kind-hearted merchant had long since passed away. But today was Azure Sky's happiest day; her brother had just returned from the Underworld and told her some news that brought tears of joy to her eyes. Her brother Bixie said, "The mortal you are looking for is now in the capital of the Xuan Dynasty. This is his aura, and his name is Mel. Brother wants to see the painting now; you go ahead." After Bixie finished speaking, he stared blankly at the person in the painting.
Azure Sky pushed open the palace door; she had waited a hundred years for this day. Following the aura, she found her benefactor's reincarnation. "Benefactor!!" Azure Sky exclaimed as she finally saw him. It was the same aura, the same soul, but that figure suddenly rushed into a raging fire. "Benefactor!" Could it be that she was going to lose him again? Azure Sky's beautiful snake eyes—uh, dragon eyes—shed crystal-clear tears. A heavy rain poured down, extinguishing the fierce flames. Azure Sky joyfully danced in the air; she was so anxious about her benefactor that she forgot to summon rain.
"Is it you? Mei Er?"
"It is me."
"I thought I was dead."
"I thought I wouldn't survive either," Mel smiled.
"Ah!!! A flying snake!!" Seeing Azure Sky happily circling around Mel, the overly frightened Spiritual Incense fainted in Mel's arms.
Mel turned his head just in time to see Azure Sky's bright green eyes. "Snake snake snake... uh." Immediately after, Mel rolled his eyes and fainted on the ground as well. Azure Sky lowered her small head; she was a dragon!
Memories of the Western Abyss.
Pangu is a legendary deity who opened up the heavens and the earth. Before the universe was created, it was like a great egg, chaotic and formless. A giant named Pangu slept within this "great egg" for about 18,000 years before awakening. With his divine power, Pangu separated the heavens from the earth. His left eye became the sun, and his right eye became the moon; his hair and beard transformed into the stars in the night sky; his body became the four cardinal directions and the majestic Three Mountains and Five Peaks; his blood turned into rivers; his teeth, bones, and marrow became underground minerals; his skin and body hair became the grass and trees on the earth; and his sweat became rain and dew.
After Pangu's last breath lingered around him, it enveloped a consciousness that coexisted with him. They had both slept in the cradle of the universe for 18,000 years. However, Pangu grew too quickly, and this soul within the Gentle Breeze was still just a consciousness. The great deity wrapped that fragile awareness in his remaining divine thoughts, falling into eternal slumber.
The land created by the great deity remained silent for 7,000 years before it began to show signs of life.
Around 0 years ago, during an era where humans, immortals, and demons coexisted, humanity was ruled by the Matriarchal Dynasty established by the Murong Family. The dynasty originated from a matriarchal society and evolved with civilization. However, the powers of immortals and demons were overwhelmingly strong, leaving small tribes walking on thin ice. Thus, the Murong Dynasty emerged, revered for its beauty. The Murong Dynasty led its people through turbulent times, with the Murong Empresses treating their subjects as children and striving to stabilize and develop the nation. They tearfully sent many women from the Murong Clan away to ensure peace. Those women were as beautiful as flowers, captivating enough to eclipse the moon; they appeared noble and intelligent, skilled in arts and gentle in nature. Yet in the eyes of immortals and demons, humans were merely a weak and insignificant race; they only coveted the beauty of the Murong Clan. The flawless princesses of the Murong Clan were used as tools to fend off external threats and became mere decorations in the lonely lives of immortals and demons. With heavy hearts, these women faced their fates—beautiful eyes longing for home but never to return.
Two thousand years passed; after enduring numerous trials, the Murong Dynasty finally secured a place among the three realms. Although humanity was weak, their wisdom and enduring legacy meant they could no longer be toyed with by immortals and demons. Three thousand five hundred years ago, during the reign of Empress Murong Fengxian—the 412th empress—she fell in love with Shitian, a celestial lord. Unable to bear her nation's burdens and defying humanity's hopes, she prostrated herself at Sun God Mountain as a human empress to plead for love from Shitian. From that moment on, the Murong Dynasty revered heavenly principles under celestial protection while human rights diminished.
Murong Fusu, the last princess of the Murong Dynasty during an era where humans, immortals, and demons coexisted, found humanity shackled due to its weakness under heavenly principles. The Murong Dynasty became a tool for Shitian to control humanity. In this tumultuous age filled with suffering, chaos reigned across the land as people struggled to survive while discovering that the Murong royal family was manipulated by immortals and demons. "If fate is predetermined by heaven, I will break this heaven!" Finally, someone shouted out for humanity.
Ling Tian! A chivalrous hero who led the Heaven and Earth Army against the Murong Dynasty and founded the Heaven and Earth Alliance. In his youth, he proclaimed that "humans are no longer pawns of immortals and demons!" He vowed to create a new world for humanity without fear of celestial beings. Fusu joined the rebel army known as Heaven and Earth Army as a princess of Murong Dynasty because she held onto hope from her ancestors' queens to fight for a place for humanity! In a chaotic world filled with battles between immortals and demons amidst an impending collapse of the Murong Dynasty, Heaven and Earth Army became humanity's banner—a hope for a new era.
Fusu was like a guardian goddess of Heaven and Earth Army—beautiful, wise, skilled in healing magic—helping many relieve their suffering and regain hope. For her beloved Ling Tian's ideal of "creating a new world," she silently dedicated herself wholeheartedly in support. Between family loyalty and ideals, she chose ideals—standing beside Ling Tian. Bearing her dynasty's curse while fighting on behalf of humanity, Fusu fortuitously inherited Snowy Sky's bloodline to become a celestial being. However, she sacrificed her immortal soul to remain on earth to protect her beloved one. Ultimately, she perished in battle during an interstellar war between immortals and demons in Snow Country. Ling Tian remained unaware of Fusu's death as he searched for her throughout ten years of war. Meanwhile, Fusu's soul transformed into a butterfly that quietly accompanied him.
Finally came years of relentless warfare. Humanity lay shattered with only one last wall remaining. Ling Tian stood atop that crumbling city wall: "I desire Ling Tian! Time does not favor me! With my last breath—if humanity perishes—I refuse to be prisoners of immortals or demons! Will you follow me?!" The cries echoed inside and outside the city walls! "We are humanity! We will not die out!! We will not die out!!!"
After 5,000 years of human history marked by compromises made by the Murong royal family under pressure from immortals and demons alongside resistance from Heaven and Earth Army—will humanity ultimately be extinguished? We are humanity! We will not die out!!! Looking up at heaven while standing firm on earth!! Unafraid of immortals or demons!!!! Finally, that trembling city wall crumbled under celestial magic into dust. Humanity would bleed its last drop of warm blood back into dust. Ling Tian gazed through swirling sands at a sorrowful butterfly fluttering nearby.
