In one life, he was a mortal on Blue Star, drifting through an ordinary existence and passing his days in ignorance.
In another life, he was the universe's primordial divine embryo. He reached the ultimate realm of the cosmos and stood alone against countless evil races from beyond the domain, staining the starry sea with blood before falling in battle beneath the heavens.
The Heavenly Dao cherished his origin, sealed away his memories from time immemorial, and sent him into reincarnation for a third life. He was born into the Gu family of the lower realm's Ruins, becoming the youngest young master, fiercely protected by every member of the family.
For generations, the Gu family has guarded the remnants of the Reincarnation Realm, bearing the karma of ages past. His five sisters protect him with gentle care, his four brothers brave every storm for him, and his parents, who command the secrets of the Ruins Dao, quietly conceal his astonishing destiny.
For eighteen years, he kept a low profile in peace. Then, one day, the Dao Stone stirred, and the seal began to crack.
Broken visions of the starry sea, the shadow of a phoenix rising from the flames, and the aching obsession of one who died in battle ages ago all awakened.
Suddenly, he understood
In the lower realm, an orphan of a sea of blood awaited rescue from a dead end. In the upper realm, an ancient race was withering on the brink of extinction. In the Immortal Realm, a righteous sect had been unjustly exterminated. In the Divine Realm, a fated goddess bore the sins of ages past.
Fourteen peerless women, each burdened by genocide, bloodline curses, or the injustice of the Heavenly Dao, crossed the layers of karma woven through reincarnation, all to reach him, their one and only destined salvation.
The evil races beyond the domain had endured for ages, while the calamity of the void devoured world after world, seeking to erase all life, shatter reincarnation, and bring everything to an end.
From the ancient valleys of the Ruins to the boundless lower realms, from the remnants of ancient races to the ruins of the Divine Realm.
Gu Chen pressed onward, step by step, unsealing the Dao foundation of his three lives and bearing the blood debts of countless families, layers upon layers of karma, and solitude stretching back through the ages.
At last, in the body of a young man, he ascended to the supreme peak as Lord of the Ruins.
He would suppress the void and bring order to the dust and ruins,
repair the broken cycle of reincarnation and fulfill the regrets of ages past.
