In a forgotten corner of the world, a child is born without a name in the stars, without a thread of fate. No cry, no karma, no destiny — just silence.

Shen Mu was never meant to exist. Yet from the moment of his birth, the world began to shift. Hunted by monks who fear his presence, ignored by the heavens themselves, he grows in the shadow of fate, marked by an ancient system hidden within him.

But what if the greatest threat… is the memory sealed within his soul?

As mysterious sects rise and forgotten powers awaken, Shen Mu will walk the path of cultivation with no master, no allies — only a sword, a fragment of the void, and a truth that could shatter the heavens.

The World Hidden Within the Flesh of a God

In the days that followed, the Silent Soul Sect was wrapped in a strange silence.

As if the very foundations of the world were holding their breath.

Shen Mu reappeared at the edge of the sacred lands, where the mist of the Broken Abyss slowly receded beneath his steps.

[Origin: Temple of a Hundred Vows – Sect of the Ethereal Lily]

[Probability of Physical Manifestation: 87%]

Shen Mu's gaze shifted slightly to the east.

But within, a fragment of memory trembled.

Not a personal memory, but an echo.

Bound to a vow his soul had yet to make… but which someone else had once carved through him.

The Eye of the Celestial Scholar did not merely see the world.

It iscerned forgotten oaths, and truths buried beneath intentions.

And that gaze… had just fallen upon him.

Meanwhile, in the distant mountains of the Ethereal Lily, an old man slowly folded a jade banner.

Around him, ten thousand scrolls floated in the air, softly vibrating.

— The bearer of the Void has moved.

— Master… is it him? asked the youngest.

A pale golden circle lit up in his left pupil.

— That name… should never have been spoken.

[Trigger: In 3 days, at the summit of the Mountain of Vows]

[Potential Reward: Awakened Soul Fragment – Memory of an Ancient One]

But he also felt the poison laced within it.

The gaze of the world had turned to him.

And some of those gazes… were not meant to be endured by the living.

But because something within him had always walked toward the abyss.

And now that Nihila had awakened… that step had become inevitable.
