The Great Path of the Lord God

The Great Path of the Lord God is a long-running web novel by Gu Yue Ju Shi, serialized on Qidian.com from June 2016 to its completion in September 2018, spanning over 1,600 chapters and roughly 3.94 million Chinese characters. The protagonist, Zhao Qi (also known as Zhao Zhigao), is an ordinary man in the real world who stumbles upon the creation divinity and maker divinity left behind by Dinel, the god of literature. Using "theseed," he creates the first version of an infinite world. To make supernatural power viable in a modern world governed by strict physical laws, he uses low-tier World Trees to gather spiritual energy and open spirit veins, and walks the earth through avatars, posing as supreme deities from mythologies around the world. Through the power of faith, the illusory world is gradually "refined from falsehood into truth." The story follows his step-by-step elevation of Earth, his devouring of the nine-star ley lines, his opening of the three realms of Heaven, Humanity, and the Underworld, his bringing myth down into reality, and his eventual rise into the myriad worlds, where he and other great powers play out their rivalries with worlds as the chessboard. It is a behind-the-scenes creation-flow work whose core appeal lies in "turning the void into the real and creating worlds."
