From Exorcism to Consuming Corpses, Invoking the Gods Begin

In this mystical and mysterious realm, a ritualistic ceremony unfolds at the Máo Shān Altar. The participants adorn themselves with human skin lanterns, beckoning divine intervention. An arm-stretching formation of the Eight Trigrams is set, accompanied by the eerie dance of the Wind Worm and the Fēng Gǔ ritual. The eight directions converge, creating a symphony of esoteric practices that shatter the veil between the mortal realm and the divine. As the initiate proceeds with their journey, they traverse the Nine Hells and the Seven Mountains, undergoing a transformation through alchemy. This is a tale of consuming the flesh of the dead, a path fraught with peril, where the seeker must confront the turbulent forces of the world. The narrative is set in the Kāmā Loka, a realm of sensual indulgence and suffering, where the inhabitants are beset by the five impurities of the age. Amidst this chaos, the protagonist, Chen Ying, emerges as a charismatic figure, boasting of his intellectual prowess and physical beauty. Born in the warmth of spring, he grew up under the banner of the Red Flag, his life's journey marked by a transformative experience that has forever altered his destiny.
