The Sacred Ruins

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? ------ Chen Dong is one of the top authors in the Chinese Qidian site and this particular novel has been number one on its monthly charts for several months straight. If you are looking for a funny and unique novel that is free from the cliches of reincarnation and cultivation, this might just be what you are looking for. The story develops quite slowly for the first ten chapters or so but becomes much better paced afterwards. ------ Release Rate: 7 Chapters/Week

Offerings

Editor: Chrissy

Chu Feng was moved. He wanted to climb the altar but he knew things weren't that simple. The suppressive might of this place was simply too great. Even evolved beings at their level would feel a type of oppressive and stifling sensation after getting closer.

The sacrificial altar was enormous. It was like an ancient city towering over the area in front of them. The offerings on the jade table atop the sacrificial altar were emitting bright radiant lights.

At this moment, someone let out a growl, rashly approached the altar, and charged up the stone steps. As a result, he was suppressed to the point where blood seeped out of the corner of his mouth and his whole body was trembling.

Thump!

The man tumbled back down in the end, pale and delirious.

The eyes of all the experts here were glowing red. Who wouldn't be moved by the things on the altar?

"Let me try!"

Another person went up in large strides in hopes of climbing up the altar.
