HUNTERS_TURN

Xuan, the once-revered Space Emperor, was a figure of myth and legend. His mastery over the spatial arts made him unmatched in his prime. He could fold space with a flick of his hand, walk between worlds as easily as stepping through a door, and his power over the stars themselves earned him his title. Yet, despite all his might, Xuan had fallen—betrayed by those he once trusted,his empire shattered, and his cultivation crippled.

But the Martial Dao was not a straight line, nor did it end with defeat.

Xuan had always believed that the true essence of the Martial Dao was not in reaching the peak, but in the struggle to rise, again and again, no matter how many times fate knocked him down. His fall had only awakened a deeper understanding within him—an understanding that would propel him beyond his previous limits.

Wandering in the desolate void, Xuan discovered ancient techniques and remnants of civilizations long lost to the flow of time. Each one held fragments of power that, when pieced together, opened new doors to cultivation realms previously thought unreachable. His body, broken and weak, was forged anew in the flames of adversity. The very spatial laws he once mastered had now evolved within him.

Xuan’s enemies believed him to be finished, but they did not understand the determination of a man who had seen beyond the confines of life and death.

Would he rise above the heavens, or would the forces arrayed against him crush him once more? One thing was certain: Xuan’s journey was far from over.!

Space Time Emperor

At the age of fifteen, Xuan experienced a profound shift that would change his life forever. Deep in his meditative state, while training in the depths of the Heavenly Thunder Sect's forbidden grounds, memories of a past life surged into his mind like a torrential flood.

Images, emotions, and experiences that weren't his own overwhelmed him, but in time, they began to settle, revealing a life long forgotten. In that moment, Xuan realized that he was no ordinary cultivator

he had once been a mighty figure, a powerful emperor who ruled the stars.

For weeks after the awakening, he kept these memories to himself, unsure of what to make of them. He had spent his youth striving to reach the peak of cultivation, believing that power and strength were the only measures of success.

Yet, the memories of his past life told a different story. He had reached heights of power that few in the current world could even dream of, but it had left him cold and hollow. His life had been consumed by ambition, politics, and the never-ending pursuit of strength. And for what? Loneliness? Betrayal?

Now, with his past life's wisdom and power flooding back to him, Xuan found himself questioning everything. Was the pursuit of power truly worth the sacrifices it demanded? Was his current path leading him to the same tragic end as before?

By the time Xuan turned sixteen, his entire outlook on life had shifted.

He no longer cared for the intense cultivation schedules or the politics that dominated the sect. The petty squabbles between the three clans Xuan, Feng, and Linseemed trivial in the grand scheme of things.

The pressure from his father, First Elder Xuan Tianyi, to rise to greater heights in cultivation no longer fazed him. In fact, Xuan found himself purposefully slacking in training, much to the surprise and confusion of his peers.

While the Heavenly Thunder Sect saw him as a rising prodigy, Xuan himself had already reached the pinnacle of cultivation: the Void Emperor Realm. His soul was ancient, and the cultivation knowledge he now possessed far surpassed even the greatest elders of the sect.

Yet, he chose to hide his true power, pretending to be the lazy, disinterested youth everyone now saw.
