Chinese traditional culture broke into a deep break after the leap of modernity, especially by the May 4th Movement with complete negation of traditional culture. As a historical memory of collective unconsciousness, mythologies have to realize the transformation of modernity. It happened in 21c in China by the rise of network novels which is a new space for communication as the mirror of ideology. Thus, we see fantasy has become one of the main streams of Chinese network novels. There are two patterns in the mystery fiction, foreworld and cultivation, both of them try to establishing the logic of industrial society in place of the organic of primitive society. But rational logic brings the landscape of consumerism, destroyed the collective unconscious of Mythology. Chinese mythologies are also facing a situation of collapse resulting in the myth of entropy. Internet fictions have interrupted the circular movement in literature in Anatomy of Criticism by Frye, which could be regarded as the unique modern consequence in China. A high-level imitation of collectivism is turning around to Low-level imitation not by God but only the potentiality of human self through the adventure and cultivation of instrumental rationality. Myth is no longer a man's self transcendence but the realization of the desire of modern society. So there are three kinds of consequences. First, myths have lost their faith power and people are falling into the planarization of desire of modernization. Second, the novels are faced with the scarcity of the story resources. The last, the internet fictions are losing its appeal. Only internet fictions get rid of instrumental rationality and vulgar pragmatism and go back to super utilitarian Aesthetic, it could save the destruction of mythology in contemporary China.
