“A traveler who does not belong to this age, a great being wandering the stars, a god who dances with the uncanny.”

In his first life, he was an unremarkable college student who accidentally transmigrated his soul into a cultivation world.

In his second life, he started at the very bottom of the cultivation world and fought his way up, eventually reaching the pinnacle of the immortal path, only to be betrayed by his beloved and his closest friend.

That’s right… the plot really is so clichéd it’s ridiculous, but it truly happened to Ling Yuan.

Unlike in the stories, though, Ling Yuan did not die completely. His damaged immortal soul broke through the barriers of the continent and fled into the void.

Drawing on the mighty immortal soul he had cultivated over tens of thousands of years, he struck a deal with an ancient god in the void: a writhing eyeball surrounded by swirling nebulae.

It would help him take revenge, and in return, he would give it the faith of an entire world…

“Young man, do you crave power?” Ling Yuan approached a good-for-nothing young master and reached out to transform him into a ghoul of Pride!

At the very beginning, the origin of all fear would start with the Ghouls of Original Sin…

They might become the prideful, absorbing royal aura to become overlords.

Or they might become the envious, loathing every beautiful thing in the world and absorbing resentment to become lords of the wraiths.

Or they might become ferocious beasts who command Wrath.

They might even become curses of Gluttony that devour everything…

Every last one of them is the handiwork of a man who made a pact with an ancient god of the void.
