She still remembered, when she first entered the world of mountains and seas, it was in autumn three years ago.

The next morning, when Yao Bianliang woke up, she found that the film section had been flooded with posts about Director Michel's blockbuster.
W е̇ b n̄оv̄ е̄l Énû ṁ_a
Without a doubt, "Deep Sea Abyss" stood head and shoulders above other Spring Festival films, gaining extremely high popularity.
[The plot is average, I'd give it three stars. But adding the special effects and fight scenes, I can give it five stars.]

[A decent popcorn movie.]
[Guys, the fight scenes are truly impressive! You can watch it in one sitting and feel satisfied.]
Among these, a blogger with a million followers wrote a thousand-word review, analyzing "Deep Sea Abyss" from various aspects including special effects design and main storyline.
"Guys, I've always been concerned that Director Michel's third installment in the series would decline in quality compared to the previous two. But I never expected Deep Sea Abyss to completely exceed my expectations! Trust me, this film's quality standard definitely surpasses the previous one."
Ё n̈úm̈а̀ . і̆d̈
"This Spring Festival, if you miss Deep Sea Abyss when watching movies, you'll definitely regret it."
This blogger named Han Cunyang was a well-known film critic and also a die-hard fan of Director Michel.
His review quickly rose to popularity, with shares breaking into five digits in minutes.
"Not bad, it seems my opponent this time is very reliable," Yao Bianliang's lips curved slightly upward.

She briefly browsed through the online comments, with most viewers giving positive reviews.
However, scrolling down further, her expression froze slightly.

"Wait, hold on..."
Why were there topics related to "Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas" in the comments section of "Deep Sea Abyss"?
[I initially thought these special effects were good, until I watched Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas, and then I understood what truly great scenes and effects are...]
[Guys, I couldn't get tickets for Deep Sea Abyss yesterday, so I had to settle for Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas... I must say, I was blown away.]
[Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas? What's that, never heard of it.]
[I also went to see this film yesterday, the 35 yuan ticket price was an absolute steal! After watching Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas, if you go watch Deep Sea Abyss next door, you'll definitely find it bland.]

[Uh, you're talking about a domestic film, right? How could it have better special effects than Hollywood?]
[Hmph, these days anyone dares to piggyback on Director Michel's film with marketing tactics? Not afraid of overplaying their hand.]
The comments section quickly erupted into debate.
Some viewers who had seen Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas were enthusiastically recommending it, but unfortunately, most people maintained a skeptical attitude.
Some even suspected these were paid commenters hired by competitors.
Among those most dissatisfied was blogger Han Cunyang. As a devoted fan of Director Michel, he couldn't tolerate such comparisons to his beloved film.
Ё ń uma . і d̄
Moreover, since Yao Bianliang hadn't conducted any promotion whatsoever, most people, except for her die-hard fans, were unaware of this film's existence.
"What on earth is Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas?" Han Cunyang immediately fired back in the comments section, "Frankly speaking, certain domestic films don't focus on improving their quality, but instead play the game of putting down others for marketing. How can there be any future in piggybacking on other films?"

Fans in the comments section supported him, but many viewers of "Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas" were also displeased.
[Who's using negative marketing? Just stating facts, Sister Liang's film is several times better than Deep Sea Abyss.]
[Kindly recommending this film to you, only to be labeled as paid commenters—can't we even speak the truth?]
[I've seen both films, let me make an objective comparison.
Ѐň üṁ а̄._і d
Deep Sea Abyss costs 70 yuan per ticket, while Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas is only 35 yuan, very conscientious;
Deep Sea Abyss has ordinary special effects and a formulaic plot, definitely not worth 70 yuan; while Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas has much better special effects and a noteworthy plot.
Honestly, there's no need to exalt this Hollywood film. This domestic film, Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas, is far superior.]
[+1, the blogger hasn't even seen Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas, what right does he have to call us paid commenters?]

[LOL, is this blogger a newcomer? Doesn't he know my Sister Liang's former reputation?]
Han Cunyang: "..."
Ẃ éḃñ о v ë_l̂ Е̇n̂um.а
Reading these comments, Han Cunyang's initially anger-clouded mind gradually became clearer.
Looking at these people's remarks, they indeed didn't seem like paid commenters but genuine audience members.
Moreover, many of their comments suggested they were fans of this "Sister Liang."
Who was this "Sister Liang" that suddenly appeared?
Han Cunyang searched online and discovered that "Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas" had been in preparation for five years, just like "Deep Sea Abyss," with an investment approaching 2 billion.
And Yao Bianliang had been a top-tier celebrity in the domestic entertainment industry five years ago.

Han Cunyang also searched for information and the promotional trailer for "Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas," watching it with a critical eye before inwardly muttering to himself.
It's just so-so, although much better than many domestic films, but not that impressive.
How could they praise it to the skies?
Not only praising it, but these people even claimed Director Michel's new work couldn't compare to this film—he simply couldn't tolerate that!
With this thought, Han Cunyang sneered: "Fine! Since you think I haven't seen the film and therefore have no right to evaluate it, I'll watch it and then give my assessment!"
"If 'Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas' truly far surpasses 'Deep Sea Abyss,' I'll write my name backward on the spot!"
Ёñŭ ṁ_а
He was still cautious, using the phrase "far surpasses" in his wording.
So even if "Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas" was indeed on par with "Deep Sea Abyss," he would still have room to maneuver.

[Wow, this guy is really stubborn.]
[LOL, waiting for the blogger to change his name to Yang Cunhan.]
[Waiting here, blogger, how about writing a review after watching the film?]
After making his bold statement, Han Cunyang ignored those netizens who came to watch the drama and directly exited the app.
Ẽn̄ u m̀а̌
"I just don't believe this film could be that great."
Muttering to himself, he opened the ticket-booking app and directly bought a ticket for "Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas."
Just wait—after watching this film, he would definitely write a well-reasoned negative review!

At the cinema.
The number of people coming to watch "Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas" showed a clear increase compared to the first day. By the time the film was about to start, seven or eight out of ten seats in the hall were filled.
W е̌ b̂ṅ оv̀е l̃ Ēñ_ŭm̀ а̄
"Brother Han, you really shouldn't have made such an impulsive statement," his friend couldn't help saying, "Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas has an investment of nearly 2 billion; regardless, it shouldn't be much worse than Deep Sea Abyss."
Han Cunyang pursed his lips: "What do you know?"
Before coming, he had certainly done his homework.
Based on currently available information, the narrative of Mountains and Seas perfectly matched the original text, resembling a travelogue more than a film.
After the female protagonist crossed over to the world of mountains and seas, she embarked on a long journey, experiencing many small stories along the way, and finally found the Mountains and Seas scroll at the end of the river, successfully returning to modern society.
During this process, she certainly experienced many hardships but ultimately turned danger into safety.

In short, the formula lacked novelty and held no excitement!
With these thoughts, Han Cunyang absentmindedly ate his chips, also feeling a sense of anticipation.
He wasn't anticipating how wonderful the film would be; on the contrary, he was anticipating how terrible it would be—
From the moment he started watching the film, he had prepared himself to criticize it.
"Ding------"
The clear sound of a wind chime gently echoed, the screen brightened, and the film began.
Ӗ ṅuṁа . і̄d
It was a bright and sunny day, and an ordinary working person had completed her job.
It was already midnight when she hurriedly returned home. Opening the door, under the warm yellow light, her cozy little nest appeared particularly comforting.

But soon, this peaceful life was disrupted when the female protagonist was drawn into another world by the Mountains and Seas scroll.
Under the cover of the forest, darkness filled the land. Apart from the faint light of the moon, there was no other illumination.
Darkness signified the unknown, and suddenly falling into a strange world, any slight movement could cause fear.
Not only did the female protagonist feel panic, but the audience's hearts also tensed.
Еn̆ǔ mӓ
"Swoosh------"
Suddenly, a slight sound, like wind brushing through grass, a rustling noise.
The female protagonist sensed a faint light ahead and walked quickly toward it, only to collide face-first with a dark brown wall.
"What is..."

The wall was covered with rough textures, like the feel of tree bark. It curved, about a hundred feet wide, with its top nowhere in sight.
The female protagonist's heart skipped a beat as she slowly stepped backward. The camera followed her gaze upward, finally revealing the full view of this "wall"------
Ẁ е̊ b̄ ń оv̊еl̊ Е̄ n û mа
It was a tree, a towering giant tree with dense branches and leaves.
She wasn't even as tall as its roots, as insignificant as a speck of dust.
With her touch, as if hitting some switch, the leaves lit up layer upon layer.
The veins on the leaves glowed with a black-gold light, flowing gently in the breeze, and from a distance, it looked like a sky full of stars had entered view.
In the boundless darkness, this towering tree was like a lighthouse in the night, the momentary sense of wonder it gave was dazzling.
Under the illumination, the previously dark forest became clearly visible.

The babbling water, dancing fireflies, glowing fruits, and the fire-red birds perched on branches all appeared, like a painting of exquisite beauty.
Han Cunyang was no longer casual, slowly sitting up straight.
The transition from darkness to light, the perilous forest, human insignificance, and exquisite imagination all gave him a powerful sense of awe.
How much money had this production team spent on special effects?
Just this scene alone must have cost countless funds!
"Boom" came a loud noise, as if something heavy had landed behind her.
En̊um̃ ӓ
The female protagonist instinctively turned around, and what entered her view were the powerful limbs of a beast. She slowly looked up to see a giant creature about five meters high and ten meters long.
The immense shock almost made her forget to breathe.

The creature looked somewhat like a sheep but wasn't one, its body covered in thick, dark fur, with horns on its forehead reflecting a cold light in the moonlight.
Its round eyes were bright and spirited, majestic and solemn, as if they could see through human deceit and goodness.
Standing nearly two stories high, she had to look up to barely see this enormous creature.
In almost suffocating fear, finally, the creature slowly moved.
Еnŭm̊ а
It spoke: "Human... leave this place."
The deep voice slowly resonated, echoing through the valley again and again. Like the powerful shock it gave, the feeling lingered.
By now, Han Cunyang was completely stunned.
"Damn..."

What kind of divine beast was this!
With such exquisite modeling and special effects, each hair of the creature was clearly visible. It seemed to have come alive, walked out of ancient paintings of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and stood vividly before people.
Ẃ е b̊ n̊ ǒ v̀ ӗ l̈ Еn ū m̊.а
This effect was completely on par with the giant whale in "Deep Sea Abyss."
Moreover, the giant whale in Deep Sea Abyss was a hidden boss, making a stunning appearance only at the end. But now, such a creature appeared right at the beginning of "Chronicle of Nine Provinces' Mountains and Seas"!
Could it be... that every future creature would be as impressive as this one?
Han Cunyang swallowed, his firm conviction beginning to rapidly waver.
After all, he was Chinese, and no matter how exquisite foreign modeling was, it ultimately lacked a certain flavor. If truly compared, one's own culture would definitely feel more authentic!
The creature before him seemed to awaken something in Chinese blood. That kind of soul-deep resonance was captivating.
Baca cerita ini hanya di situs resmi Enuma.id!
The Classic of Mountains and Seas, as a book that gathered ancient Chinese mythology, had already subtly and profoundly entered the marrow. This kind of blood-deep familiarity was something foreign modeling could never match.
"Go east, human, to the end of the river... that is where you should be."
❀⋆｡°✿☆❀✿°｡⋆❀
Following the river eastward to find the lost Mountains and Seas scroll was also the only way to return to modern society.
This was destined to be a long journey.
The forest terrain was complex and perilous; not every creature was a benevolent being.

Under pursuit, the female protagonist accidentally entered a strange tribe—where primitive people lived.
The tribal people drew their bows and arrows, wanting to kill her, but were stopped by the tribe's shaman.

"She carries the aura of an auspicious beast," the shaman looked at her, "Have you encountered Xiezhi?"
The female protagonist then learned that the creature she had met was called Xiezhi.
Understanding human language and nature, it was innately able to discern right from wrong and see through human hearts, symbolizing justice and bravery.
In the end, the tribal people didn't expel the female protagonist but allowed her to stay temporarily.
Wе b̌n ovе l Е̃ ǹu m̈ а̊
The female protagonist could finally sleep soundly in a safe environment.
"Where are you going?" a tribal youth asked her.
"East, to where the river meets the ocean," she said, "I want to find a way home."
The youth paused: "East... is the ocean."

The youth said their tribe had migrated from west to east.
Floods had engulfed their original homeland, forcing them to leave their native land. And there were many similar tribes.
Wẽ b̈ ǹ о v eĺ Е̇ñ û m̈ а̂
Wandering people always longed to return to a stable home.
During these days of rest, the tribal youth Xia brought the female protagonist along, teaching her to identify plants and how to survive.
The grass that looked like chives but had blue flowers was called Zhu. Eating it would prevent hunger.
The ape with white ears was called Jingxingxing; eating its meat would make a person walk extremely fast.
In the forest, a creature shaped like a horse but with a white head and patterns all over its body was called Lushu; if a person wore its fur, they would have many children and grandchildren.

That night, the youth Xia brought her to a place, gently parting a large yellow leaf.
The orange-red fruit wrapped inside the leaf, hidden among the grass, carried an alluring shine.
"This is Danmu, even more delicious," he handed the fruit to her, his face smiling.
The young woman gently broke it open, revealing the tempting flesh inside.
The Classic of Mountains and Seas, also known as Culinary China. Every animal and plant in it that was edible had its method of consumption clearly marked in the text.
Whether in ancient wilderness or modern society, the Chinese enthusiasm for food had never changed.

Sweet juice flowed from the flesh, tangy and sweet, the juicy flesh leaving a lasting impression.
At the moment of biting into the fruit, she felt as if some barrier between herself and this world of mountains and seas had been broken.

This mysterious and dangerous world revealed an endearing side to her.
Seeing her smile, the youth also smiled.
"Come, we'll take you hunting!"
They took her to set traps in the wild and catch beasts; to labor in the fields and plant crops.

They competed with white apes in the forest for fruits, raced with flame birds in the sky, and conquered animals like Lushu, shaped like horses but singing like birds.
This was a free and beautiful place.
The primitive wilderness civilization and the five-thousand-year Chinese culture perfectly merged at this moment. This place was both filled with novelty and fantasy everywhere, yet carried a unique charm that felt incredibly familiar to Chinese people.
When leaving the tribe, the female protagonist bid farewell to Xia.

"I'm beginning to love this place, Xia," she said softly.
"You should leave quickly," Xia sighed, "The floods are coming, this place... is no longer safe."

With the help of the tribe's shaman, the female protagonist made her way to the deep forest and received help from the creature Zouwu.
Zouwu was about the size of a tiger, but its tails were longer than its body. The colorful patterns on its body gleamed in the light. Riding it could cover a thousand miles in a day.
She and Zouwu together embarked on a long journey.
During the subsequent journey, she encountered many more creatures and tribes.
There were auspicious beasts treading on auspicious clouds, as well as fierce beasts with blue faces and fangs, fruits that could bring mysterious powers when eaten, and kind natives who offered her help.
The plot unfolded layer by layer, and as the journey deepened, the world of mountains and seas also unveiled its mysterious veil.

With the arrival of floods, the tribes here suffered severe disasters; in the face of natural calamities, human power always seemed so small.
The closer to the sea, the more ferocious the floods became.
One year, two years... during the long journey, the female protagonist's urgent desire to find the scroll diminished.
Her connection with the world of mountains and seas deepened, not just with the natives but also with the creatures here.
Sometimes she even wondered, if she crossed back, would she ever see the people and beasts of this place again?
Zouwu lay down beside her for a brief rest. Its fluffy tails formed a fan shape behind it, shielding them—one human and one beast—from the wind and rain outside.
Еn̂ū m̌ ӓ
This was the female protagonist's third year in the world of mountains and seas, and she had finally reached the east, where the last human tribe resided.
"Find the shaman here, he should have a way to help you find the scroll," Zouwu said softly.

However, no one expected that a sudden flood would disrupt the original plan.
The land around the tribe was completely submerged, and for survival, the female protagonist and the tribal people began to resist this terrible disaster together.
"I'm sorry, we have no strength to help you now, child. As you can see, our homeland is about to be destroyed."
When the female protagonist made her request, the white-haired shaman looked at her deeply, his eyes filled with complex emotions that were difficult to interpret.
W̌ ẽbǹоv̄ е̌ l̈ Е̌ ñû m̊ å
The female protagonist asked: "Then, what must be done to stop this flood? Can I help?"
The shaman shook his head: "Only the Ancient River Map can help us."
"The Ancient River Map?"
"Yes, the River Map contains divine power and can surely stop this enormous disaster," the shaman said, then smiled bitterly, "Legend has it that the River Map would descend in autumn three years ago. But until now, we still cannot find trace of it."

"Autumn three years ago..."
The female protagonist murmured this time dazedly.
Ẁ ӗbn о̃v̆ e ĺ E̊ n úm̌ a
She still remembered, when she first entered the world of mountains and seas, it was in autumn three years ago.
