Orclion

Existence was divided into three realms.

The Heavenly Realm. The Earthen Realm. The Infernal Realm.

Below them, countless minor realms of all types existed, none able to match the might of any of the Three Fundamental realms.

The Celestials led the Heavenly Realm, The Immortals led the Earthen Realm and Demons led the Infernal Realm while the Rulers controlled all the minor realms.

Together, they formed The Myriad Unity and allowed peace to reign supreme.

The mortals were allowed to cultivate and reach for the Heavens as a balance was installed between the Heaven and Earth, all according to the Heaven’s Will.

And yet, among the billions of trillions of living beings within the Myriad Unity, one seemed unsatisfied.

“They are lying to us.”

This man went against all known truths and contradicted the very gods.

“We are in a false world! Mere pawns used to study an outcome!”

And so in search of freedom and truth, this man committed the ultimate taboo.

He rebelled.

Against The True Gods

The orbs rippled, and the vines opened up, revealing the treasures inside.

The first was a bundle of golden and silver strings, covered in glowing white runes. The second was a beating heart, covered in vines and runes of all colors, and finally, the third was a wiggling mass of flesh and tendrils, like a living cancerous mound.

'True Strings of Fate… Ninefold Boundless Lifeheart… Ancestral Vine Symbiote…'

Without wasting any more time, Caine took off his robes just as he applied multiple sealing formations all over the room.

With a deep inhale and an even deeper exhale, he began.

The Ninefold Boundless Lifeheart floated toward him and viciously exploded into a bundle of emerald runes that were etched into his chest, right above his hearts.

An explosion seemed to go off in Caine's body as an overflow of Boundless Life and Death Qi flooded his body and tore him apart.
