Introduction to the work "The Eyes of Return to Ruins"
Shen Suxin woke up from a coma, her memory was fragmented, and she stood barefoot in a ruins that had been sealed for three hundred years. She didn't know where she came from, where the black fragments embedded in the bones in her body came from, and she didn't know what the small, glowing round object in her dantian was - it was like an eye, staring at her silently.
The only thing she knows is: this is the secret realm of Guixu. Three hundred years ago, the nine sects tried their best to seal it, not to prevent people from entering, but to prevent the things inside from coming out.
There is another person in the secret realm. Xie Jiuyin, with a silver-white right eye and a lazy smile, has lived alone in it for three months. She said that the timeline in the secret realm is folded - the past, present and future exist here at the same time, and the different possibilities of the same person can see each other. Those twisted, wailing things wandering among the ruins are the people who "fell out" from the torn timeline.
They have to find a way to leave. But the truth deep in the secret realm is far weirder than imagined - Guixu Secret Realm is not a secret realm, but a person's heart. An ancient existence named "Suyin" couldn't bear to erase any possibility, so she broke herself into countless pieces, scattered across the endless timeline, and turned into countless "people". And her consciousness was compressed into an eternal "I am", trapped in the deepest part of the secret realm, saying it for countless thousands of years.
Shen Suxin discovered that she was one of Suyin's fragments, the most complete piece, and the only one who could inherit the core of the secret realm. If she becomes the core, she will be trapped at the intersection of timelines forever, turning into a city, a sky, and an immortal star; if she refuses, the secret realm will collapse, and everyone on the timeline will be completely forgotten.
Xie Jiuyin said: "I don't want you to become a star. I want you to live as a human being."
But Shen Suxin said: "If my 'living' can prevent everyone from being forgotten, then I am willing."
This is a story about memory, forgetting, choice and symbiosis. Under the cloak of immortal cultivation, there is a questioning of self-existence and the nature of time. The fate of two timelines entangled, a hundred and twenty years of waiting, and a sentence that penetrates the years - "I am".
Intention: Among the endless possibilities, choosing to be oneself is the meaning of existence; and being remembered is the only way to fight against forgetfulness and nothingness.
