After an unexpected romantic encounter with the newly appointed beautiful county magistrate, Xu Qianli, who originally faced setbacks in both career and love, begins to turn his fate around. He rises steadily, gaining success in politics. "Power, wealth, and beauty are all within my grasp!"

Before creation, there was Nothing. From that void, rose 36 Authorities — divine entities that shaped time, space, light, death, and fire. They maintained the balance of existence through a powerful artifact: the Vessel of Equilibrium. But one among them — the strongest — stopped obeying the balance. He sits on the throne of the universe, bored of order and tired of responsibility. The Omnipotent One, whose power surpasses even the laws that bind the cosmos, has begun to question the system they swore to protect. When he carelessly triggers the Vessel, the balance begins to shatter. Time fractures. Souls vanish. Stars dim. And a voice from the void laughs — a voice no one has heard since the beginning. "You don’t know who you are… but soon, you will." Now, hunted by his own kind and haunted by a mysterious force from the original Nothingness, the hero must face the truth: What if he wasn't meant to be a god… but something far more dangerous? --- "The 36 Thrones" is a dark cosmic fantasy that explores godhood, rebellion, and the terrifying price of imbalance.
