Yue Xin stood before the solitary stone in the graveyard, her fingers tracing the ancient inscription etched upon its weathered surface. Her mind raced through fragmented memories of her past life—her true timeline—and what she had learned about this place.
"Beneath lies he whose fate was sealed not by death, but by choice."
The words sent a chill down her spine. She remembered now. In her original timeline, this grave remained untouched, dismissed as insignificant by historians and cultivators alike. But beneath this unassuming marker lay something extraordinary—a fragment of primordial energy known only to those who dared to dig deeper. A fragment that could reshape destinies if wielded correctly.
But there was more. Much more.
