Chaos Begins: Tribulation of the Myriad Worlds

The void was chaos without beginning or end. Only a wisp of primordial pure essence and a mass of tangled turbid energy drifted through the endless darkness. The pure essence condensed into Cang Xuan, who established rules and sought to bind chaos with order. The turbid energy transformed into Ling Xi, who broke free of constraints and sought to give life through creation. Their struggle tore apart the primordial expanse, yet amid the storm of unbalanced energy, it gave rise to Mo Yuan, the Lord of Balance, who reconciled the two extremes.

The three gods established the realms, forging the first Divine Realm with rules as its bones, creation as its blood, and balance as its veins. But the remnants of chaos, Shadow Ember, lay hidden in the abyss, stealing the power of balance and disrupting reincarnation until the three gods joined forces to suppress it. With the Divine Realm finally stabilized, the Supreme Gods withdrew behind the scenes and let all things flourish. They did not know that Shadow Ember's remnant soul had survived, waiting for the imbalance of countless realms to give it cause, ten thousand years later, to unleash chaos once more.

Ten thousand years passed in the blink of an eye, and myriad realms emerged beneath the Divine Realm:

The Immortal Realm inherited the pulse of the rules, established the laws of Heaven, and governed fate, but gradually lost its flexibility, becoming a cold prison in the highest heavens;

The Human Realm lay between the two realms, inheriting reincarnation and experiencing every facet of life. It was both the cornerstone of balance and a whirlpool of conflict;

The Demon Realm upheld the lingering might of turbid energy, revered strength, defied the rules, and gathered its wrath of rebellion in the dark abyss;

The Yao Realm followed the essence of creation, taking countless forms and embracing nature. It occupied the mountains, forests, rivers, and seas, protecting the vitality of the wild;

The Flower Realm gathered the essence of Ling Xi, nurtured spiritual grace, and concealed secrets, witnessing the rise and decline of all things in silence;

The Ghost Realm governed the final stage of reincarnation, severed ties to past lives, and judged good and evil. It was both the end of order and the beginning of new life.

Shen Che, an ordinary boy from the Human Realm, is swept into the conflicts of the myriad realms because he bears a remnant imprint of the primordial source of chaos. He is both the inheritor of Mo Yuan's power of balance, passed down across generations, and the “worldbreaker” coveted by Shadow Ember
