Spirit Pact: The Record of Fated Bonds

Amid the clamor of the mortal world and ancestral lands, the power of the gods is passed down through the ages and by fortunate chance. Beneath the universal holy light, living beings are born from steles and grow because of them. They take the steles as their spirits and bind themselves to them with their souls, making reincarnation a means of inheriting power... Fortuitous encounters imbued with divine power are sealed with blood, serve as vessels for spirits, and draw their origin from the Great Way of Heaven and Earth. With the aid of living beings from time immemorial, they gather the brilliance of boundless stars and become wordless bone steles...

The existence of a stele can help the living of the present age attain even greater blessings. Leave behind the power of faith, and one can sense the stele’s past and present, and even draw upon the power of the vast souls that once perished within it at critical moments.

Spirit pacts come in countless varieties and forms, granting living beings vastly different abilities. Life spirits are the transformed forms of living beings from countless ages past; artifact spirits are born from the glories of dynasties long gone; soul spirits are great beings of Heaven and Earth who broke the cycle of reincarnation and were enlightened by the Heavenly Dao. Above them all, divine souls blessed by the gods will become immortal legends, revered above all in generations to come.

Yet the gods and the Heavenly Dao bestow tribulations equally upon every race and every corner of the world. The arrival of a fated calamity, together with the reincarnation of a spirit soul that inherits the power of the Heavenly Dao, will offer the chance to become an unrivaled legend. Can he escape the pursuit and assassination attempts of shadowy curse mages? When faced with his own destined calamity, can he follow the Dao and ultimately become an undying legend beyond all who came before? Stay tuned.
