Overview

In a vanished civilization shrouded in dust, ancient giants seek their own paths to becoming emperors. Jiang Hao, a modern young man who was once just a pawn, sets foot into the prehistoric wilderness in search of his father's whereabouts. Armed with his incomplete "power bank" totem, he battles against humans, carving out a path from primitive tribes to mysterious ancient cities; he battles against the land, traverses the wilderness, hunting and killing ancient fierce beasts, learning ancient and mystical totemic sorcery from their bodies; he battles against the heavens, as alien demonic light suddenly appears, threatening to engulf this magnificent land of the Six Wastelands. He defies the odds, ignites himself, turning into a sun, and fights against the celestial demons! Unbeknownst to him, as he shakes the heavens and moves the earth, the shackles of fate have already ensnared him, while his father's smile continues to linger.
