Ode to the Sage

The Age of Ruin has come to the Spirit Void, and all things are empty. What is a sage? The ages have never made it clear!

Sages escape death and rebirth, never entering the cycle of reincarnation. They slaughter all things just to live forever? How tragic! How lamentable!

Sages chant, sages sigh, sages laugh as life and death descend into chaos. They tread upon life and death, all in a single smile?

I swear: I shall offer my blood forever and wear my name as a crown for all eternity. I shall shatter ancient conventions and smash the laws of the heavens!

I will turn this world upside down and reverse the cycle of reincarnation! I will make all things equal! Who dares stand above the rest? I will never betray the vow I made in this life!

"Ping'er, sir says this is a world of grandeur and upheaval. It has more than court intrigue and the freewheeling life of the martial world. There are also countless immortal beings from legend..."

"Qiuzi, once we've toppled the mighty Dayong Dynasty and brought peace to this turbulent martial world, let's go and see for ourselves."

The boy called Qiuzi nodded firmly.

Two boys beneath the autumn moon. Who could have guessed that just a few years later, their quiet words would ring out like thunder?
