Who was I before? A very simple question. I don’t know the answer. The road's been too long. I lost myself along the way. Even as I scour my memory, I can’t recall. Everyone changes throughout their lives. This, this is my story. The story of someone who never should’ve been, someone who no one knew, someone the world would know. My life started on the day the world ended.

The First Paragon who had risen to the very limits of cultivation found herself facing the final heavenly tribulation before ascendency. In a vulnerable state, she was confronted by the only other pseudo-ascendant who could challenge her, the Demon Beast Emperor. Unable to bear the strain of the heavenly tribulation and the frontal attack from the Demon Beast Emperor she lost her life. The cultivation of billions of years which had brought her to the very limits of power wasted in mere moments of weakness. As she entered the Samsara cycle she recounted her memories. The struggles she faced when she was born into slavery. The struggle to earn her freedom. Her late start in cultivation. Her entrance into an immortal sect. The false friends who betrayed her. The death of her master. The memories flashed by at a blistering speed until she found herself once again viewing her death. Sadness struck her as she fully realized her error. She had done it all for nothing. Her soul began to blur and fade as the samsara cycle started to make her anew. Unwilling to admit defeat she fought against one of the very principles of the universe, rebirth. Her near almighty soul that she had slowly cultivated over eons fought with unending might. The samsara cycle unable to cycle the unyielding soul cast it out and sent it to the void outside the universe. The First Paragon found herself flung far past the bounds which she recognized as the known universe. Through an undeterminable amount of time, she eventually reached an entirely separate universe. Although fundamentally similar, also vastly different. Her hostless soul unwilling to fade eventually found a world teeming with life. In dire need of a host, she found the nearest being and forcefully occupied the lifeform. Once her soul settled into the new being she heard a distinct *Ding* in the back of her mind. *System Activated* Starting her journey in a new world. --------------------------- Forcefully reincarnated into a fantasy world with a system. Will the once pseudo-ascendant First Paragon be able to rise from her birth to new heights? A world filled with everything from sages to mages. Will she rise above all others? Will she be able to survive in a world with countless possibilities? In an environment where only the strongest are free, will she thrive or will she die?

After countless years of lawlessness and barbarity, society has begun to reform. Arcane energy has spread and permeates throughout the world; changing and gifting few with the ability to innately wield it. The apocalypse caused the world to become completely devastated. Reshaping continents creating new oceans. Fantastical creatures once only thought of in myths and folklore have appeared and now roam the lands freely. The technology we know of has completely disappeared only few remnants of the past remain in the deepest ruins. Civilization has reached a medieval age in which although grimy isn’t completely filthy. Some archaic yet modern concepts still exist. People throughout the city-states fear the unknown. The few nomads and vagabonds who have somewhat adapted to the changed world have forgotten their ways in order to become accepted. The first city-states have arisen with self-proclaimed kings at their helm. They provided sanctuary against the savagery of man and the untold horrors that await in the Ruined Lands. The new faiths that crept into city-states heathenize and hunt down the people who wield arcane energy. Within the vagabonds and nomads who flock to the city-states seeking a safer life, few gifted recluses must masquerade themselves to avoid prosecution. A young girl born from a nomadic clan must rise from nothing to become one who can overcome all. Protecting those who she cherishes against prosecution for their mystic abilities. Seeking to explore the world and find foreign lands. (Note : Currently Releasing 3+ Chapters a Day)
