Primordial Divine Shield

Artifacts are divided into six ranks. Primordial artifacts reign supreme, but are also forbidden for being certain death. Damian, a genius of the Frostblade Clan, became a laughingstock on the day he awakened. A dull, faded fragment of a small shield got him cast out of his family, abandoned in the mire and scorned by everyone. No one knew that this shield was a Primordial Artifact, unseen for ten thousand years. Its unique power to devour artifacts could consume any artifact, merge a hundred powers, and break through ranks to be reborn. The price: with every evolution, his soul and spirit were torn apart, leaving him in unbearable agony. He was a cripple abandoned by the entire world, and the fated nemesis every faction was determined to eliminate. The Artifact King saw him as the final fuel needed to reach the summit, while the great clans regarded him as their greatest threat. Only Reina, a girl from the lowest rung of society, stayed by his side through endless darkness, braving every danger with him. From a slum wretch to a defier of fate who shook the continent. He devoured a thousand artifacts and endured ten thousand agonies, only to cast aside all worldly glory and return all paths to zero. **All artifacts decay; the primordial returns to its source. I am defined by nothing. I define my own rebirth.**
