ABSTRACT

In the summer of 2023, the mythical epic film Creation of The God: Kingdom of Storms, which took ten years to prepare, was successfully released. This film cleverly utilizes genre narrative, not only showcasing the adaptation strategies of mythical elements but also creating an engaging atmosphere through a multi-threaded narrative structure and an indefinite perspective. This narrative innovation has achieved significant success in both box office performance and social response, providing valuable insights for the further development of modern mythical epic films.
