In the first year of the New Era, humanity crawled out of the Great Tomb and entered a new age.
Under the shroud of the Black Tide, immortals and gods, demons and monsters, all walk the earth.
The old cultivation arts absorb qi to ascend to immortality and gather thoughts to become saints.
The new martial path uses martial arts to enter the Dao and suppress all things.
This is an age where immortals and demons dance together, and gods and ghosts run rampant. True immortals rule the world, demons plague all living things, ghosts roam by night, and monsters reveal their forms. Everywhere, the world wears a savage face.
Ji Yuan awakens and silently takes in this magnificent age.
The old ways reign supreme, while the new martial arts languish, but he refuses to accept his fate.
With a nameless scripture, he begins to forge countless old martial arts anew, from the most basic Breaking Stance Fist to the Boundless Return to the Void Stance, which annihilates all things and shatters the starry river.
From the Indestructible Golden Body, impervious to blades and spears, to the Dragon-Elephant Finality Prison-Suppressing Art, which lets him cross the void with his physical body and suppress the boundless hells.
From the Lamp-Lighting Art, which nourishes the soul, to the Burning Heaven Heart-Lamp Art, whose single heart-lamp incinerates the Myriad Worlds.
Countless ages later, when he looks back,
he sees that the gods and buddhas, immortals and sages, demons and monsters filling the skies have all become kindling for this era.
And there he stands alone at the end of time, no one daring to speak his title, honored only as the “Patriarch”
The one and only supreme being.
