章 2242: Eternal Gratitude

Suddenly the world changed.

The Tree of Life, in its nigh infinite glory, altered the very fabric of heaven and earth within the depths of the minds of all those who beheld it.

In that moment, the world that cradled all life ceased to exist.

In its place, came Hell.

A true Hell, one that was different for each and every one of them.

Some were submerged in a world of fire.

Some were submerged in a world of ice.

Some were submerged in a world of extreme gravity.

It brought them suffering.

"ARGGHH!!"

"...Ack! Can't… breathe!"

"Rgh!!"

A world that was antithetical to their Martial Body.

Martial Artists had a strange place within the Tree of Life.

The system of thought that codified the evolutionary genetic chains that bound all life and the environments that were most optimal and, by extension, most antithetical to them recognize each Martial Body as its own unique individual species.
