Beneath the Divine Mask

The red sun hangs high, twin moons align, and the abyss has devoured the world for a hundred years. Humanity survives by playing gods through divine mask artifacts. Mechanic Chen Yan, to save his cryogenically frozen sister, obtains a nameless mask that can devour broken masks—and draws the whispers of divinity. He survives under the names of the Stove God, the Door God, and the Night-Wandering God, only to discover the masks are not a gift, but a cry for help from the previous cycle of humanity. The old gods descend, the protective dome burns people alive, and he must find a third path for humanity between becoming a new god and keeping his humanity: If the gods will not bow, then humans will shatter the divine masks. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: Beneath the Divine Mask — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
