"Immortality? That can be lonely. And in the end, everyone will die. It doesn’t matter what you do to escape it—sooner or later, all shall taste death. It is already written; it’s only a matter of when and how.
But glory… glory is the answer.
Glory will outlive flesh and bones.
Glory is what we should strive for, not immortality."

Robin Burton was a young man who grew up with everything anyone could ever hope for: immense talent in cultivation, a sharp mind, and a wealthy family that would stop at nothing to protect and nurture him. He had everything—except the will to make use of it.

"Why should I walk the same path as my ancestors? Why must I seek strength just to defeat one rival or compete with another? That is not what I was born for!"

“…Heh\~” Robin let out a long sigh. “Pursuing power was never my goal. I left my family and secluded myself to escape those pointless struggles for authority. I wanted to explore the universe, and to explore myself first… yet time and again, I was dragged into devastating wars. I wanted to benefit people with my knowledge and immortalize my name, yet worlds fell and hundreds of billions died because of me. Ironic, hah?”

A small golden portal quietly opened in the middle of the raging environment, and Robin stepped out from within it with both hands clasped calmly behind his back, showing no trace of urgency despite the violent surroundings.


Above him, a violent storm churned with tremendous force, its dark mass spreading across the sky as though it wanted to swallow the entire planet whole. The surrounding rocks were shifting and rolling under the intensity of the winds, while countless trees were being uprooted from the ground and hurled through the air like worthless debris caught in a flood, yet Robin's clothes did not flutter in the slightest, as though the storm itself instinctively avoided touching him.
