[To enter this cycle of reincarnation once more is my fate.] Nine thousand years ago, Yin Ming, young master of the Yin family, stood unrivaled at the peak of the cosmos. He was the only War Emperor recognized throughout the Nine Realms and all the lands.
One day, he received a piece of news. To seek proof of the final Dao, he left the summit of the Divine Realm and journeyed alone to a mysterious region deep within the cosmos: the Dark Domain.
Time passed, and with the Cycle of Reincarnation opening once more, five years had suddenly gone by. In the void, Yin Ming sat alone atop a glazed divine disc, traveling toward the Dark Domain. A few days later, he hovered in midair, staring intently at the entrance just before him. But at the very instant he stepped into the Dark Domain, a thread of Dao power shot from nowhere and pierced his body. His physical form vanished, and a wisp of his primordial spirit entered the Cycle of Reincarnation once more.
Meanwhile, in the nearly five hundred years since, the Upper Realm's Demon Domain had begun stirring again on the Jiuzhou Continent, one of the countless lands. And the person behind it all, who had set these events in motion, was finally beginning to show himself.
