In the past, all spirits bowed before me, heaven and earth trembled in fear, and I alone reigned supreme. Yet I relinquished my imperial throne, entered the cycle of reincarnation, and hid in the mortal world, indifferent to the plight of all living beings. Unexpectedly, my demise unleashed the stirrings of evil. Those I once suppressed seized the opportunity to unleash a cataclysmic catastrophe, causing the universe to crumble, shattering the ancient Chinese continent, decimating all races, and leaving countless lives in ruins.
