Echoes of Power: The Ascendant's Path

Earth

Year 874 of the Zenith Era Calendar

A young man is looking at the beautiful night sky, at the stars in particular, while some martial practitioner is flying in his flight, yes, flying, not with an airplan but with his own abilities.

It has been a long time, precisely 874 years, since portals have started appearing on earth and monsters have started coming out of them, and at the same time, the whole world changed, from people, that have become able of cultivating, to places, like mountains and lakes, now similar to the ancient places from fantasy novels.

In this now vaster world, our protagonist is a normal person, with only the dream of becoming a being capable of soaring above the sky and with the power to destroy a mountain with just a punch, but that's just a dream.

Or is it not?
