There are no forever-weak people, only cowards who never change. If you cannot break free of your cowardice, you will always be trampled beneath others’ feet. On the Vermilion Bird Continent, a lowly servant dreams of walking across the heavens. He happens upon a fragment of the ancient powerhouse’s Empty Mirror, and from that moment begins his path to proving himself and becoming an emperor for the ages. Every obstacle in my way will die by my blade. Every so-called genius and powerhouse is nothing more than a stepping stone beneath my feet. If the road is too narrow, I will carve it open with the blade in my hand, until it is wide enough for me to pass!
