My name is Chen Hua. I'm an esper, and I was born with my powers. You ask how I know? The reason is far too cruel for me to bear. I'd never seen an esper or even heard of the concept of supernatural abilities until my grandfather told me everything while he was on the verge of death. My grandfather died because of "Shang." He asked me to find the mastermind and avenge him.
One day, about five million years ago, the sky suddenly shuddered several times with a series of thunderous booms. Then some strange force tore it open, leaving a huge rift across the heavens. Even more unbelievably, this triggered a chain reaction that spiraled out of control! The weather on the usually sunny Holy Spirit Continent turned gray and chilly, and torrential rain fell for days on end. All kinds of exotic beasts across the continent went on rampages, attacking people everywhere. Some of the meekest and weakest creatures grew immensely stronger and even dared to fight humanity's mightiest warriors to the death.
Later, Ouyang Wenya, a powerful cultivator from the Cloudveil Sect on the Holy Spirit Continent and the greatest swordswoman of her time, heard that disaster had appeared. She immediately ended her seclusion, flew through the sky on her sword, and investigated. In the end, she used the sect's supreme immortal art, Dustwatch, and discovered that the culprit behind the devastation was a cocoon no bigger than a bean. It was black and red all over, shimmering with a ghastly crimson light. Her investigation revealed that it was no ordinary cocoon, but one of the Seven Great Demons of the Undying Wasteland: the Divine Cocoon, Shang.
Later generations called that event the 001 Divine Cocoon Catastrophe.
