"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.

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?”

Robin slowly lowered his hand and carefully inspected what he had just completed, silently examining every fluctuation surrounding Hedrick's body as though confirming that not a single detail had deviated from his expectations.

Their ancient radiance intertwined without interfering with one another, creating an indescribably majestic scene that seemed completely detached from ordinary cultivation.


"Good heavens..." Draice, the Four-Star Royal Soul Master, stepped closer to Hedrick with his eyes opened as wide as they could go, almost forgetting where he was. "Those five symbols... what in the world...?"
