He unearthed an otherworldly artifact near one of the sealed coffins—a muddied relic emanating an eldritch aura that stirred unease in his excited heart. Upon peeling the layers, he found it to be a vase crafted from porcelain and jade and identified strange writings on its side. With each careful stroke, more details unraveled. The letters were that of a forgotten tongue, seemingly appertaining to an extinct civilisation, but what was clear is that it was wrought by a master's hands.

Yi Chang lived his life a sentient treasure born from chaos and cosmos essence, born not from the yin-yang of male and female but from the yin-yang of chaos and cosmos of the Endless World, such people are usually known as the child of heaven. But he was betrayed by the heavens and was killed by then heavenly tribulation and attack from his friends. Only for him to find out after his death that he wasn't the Endless World child of heaven but was born from the chaos and cosmos of non-existence-existence the in-between of multiverses but he was forcefully bonded by endless world as hers as for the reason, he couldn't tell. Now he has reincarnated on the blue planet which seem without cultivators. Read as he cultivates while standing against the heavenly dao. ------------------------------------------------------------- Sitting cross-legged on his bed, Yi Chang closed his eyes and slowed his breathing, letting the calmness of meditation settle over him. His thoughts turned inward, focusing on the technique he had been so eager to try since his return to this lower earthen plane—the Chaos-Cosmos Coherent Cultivation Technique. This was no ordinary cultivation technique. It was his creation, birthed from the deepest mysteries of the universe itself. As he delved deeper into his dantian, he felt the spiritual qi of the world stir around him. Though, it was faint, almost laughably weak too weak even for a low level spiritual plane compared to the Endless World's abundance, yet it responded to him. He began drawing it through his meridians, guiding the flow with practiced precision. The qi was get compressed and transforming the moment it reached his dantian, converting into something far more potent—cosmos-chaos qi. This new qi was unlike anything he had ever encountered before, even in the Endless World. There, as a child of heaven, he had been able to absorb any form of qi—be it elemental, chaotic, or divine. But this...this was different. The cosmos-chaos qi accepted every form of energy and seems like it could be transformed into any form of energy, merging and refining it into a purer state of existence, a limitless potential that extended beyond the boundaries of what even the heavens allowed. In this moment of realization, Yi Chang could feel the essence of his new identity. He was no longer simply a reincarnated soul or a previous child of heaven. He was an existence born from non-existence and a non-existence from existence—an entity that transcended the limitations of the universe something he doesn't truly understand. This paradoxical nature made him something neither Heaven nor Earth could fully contain.
One hundred thousand years ago, everyone was like a dragon, able to cultivate martial arts. After the calamity, the heavenly dao collapsed, and the gods fell, leaving only a mysterious reincarnation tower in the world. One hundred thousand years later, martial arts cultivation depends on bloodlines. Those with inferior blood are considered bugs and cannot cultivate, while those with divine blood are considered dragons, soaring in the heavens. A young man with inferior bloodline, stumbled upon an unnamed treasure tower, and crossed over to this fantastical world. With his inferior bloodline, he embarked on the path of burying the heavens.
"What are you doing here?" A girl asked with a frown on her face as if he just invaded her in the bathroom. This was the dawn of everything. ----- "I am not woman anymore?" She asked with a shaky voice that was far from her usual confidence and cheerfulness. "Who told you that?" He asked. He was raging with anger inside him like a volcano ready to erupt with a slight disturbance. "That doesn't matter!" She grasped his hand tightly so that he wouldn't hurt the person who told her that. "Maybe it's right. A woman who doesn't have the function of a female doesn't deserve to be called a woman..." ***** She became his first friend. First and only best friend. She treated him like a brother like her own twin. Understood each other without words, only with eyes. ... Soulmates do not always romantically love their one but sometimes in a brotherly, best friends, and a family way. Maybe loving the other this way is wrong for some people but at least right for us.
