The Pantheon of Gods dethroned the Titan Race, ushering a new age called the Era of Gods.

In this Era, the Gods decided to create a new race in their own image and have this race serve them. This race was called the Mortal Race. However, in a twist of fate, these beings known as Mortals not only inherited the Gods' image, but also their ambition.

Thus, the Mortals who was once deemed as an inferior race by the Gods created a method of cultivating the world's natural energy to become Immortals and stand next to the Gods.

The Jade Immortal, the strongest of the Immortals, besiege the Pantheon of Gods and carved out a place at the summit for Mortals, allowing them to become one of the Divine Races, along with the God Race, the Celestial Race, and the Titan Race.

However, in retaliation, the Gods divided the world into the Heavenly Realm, and the countless Mortal Realms before casting all the Mortals down to the Mortal Realms. They then blocked their ascension to the Heavenly Realm and their path of cultivating to Immortality, by cursing their entire race to face a series of Heavenly Tribulations.

That event was a very, very long time ago. So long ago that the story was all but lost in the history of the Mortal Realms.

'…I'm not as strong as you think Sol. I'm too weak to save the village, that's why I need you to leave. Goodbye son…'

After his father was murdered and his peaceful village massacred, Sol woke up to find a mysterious old man standing over him claiming to be his new Master.

“You want revenge, don’t you? I’ll train you so you have the strength to take it, but you have to become my one and only disciple first!”

This coming-of-age story follows Solovin Iziah Solaris, a village boy with a mysterious past who is stuck between two Realms. Watch as he grows from a clever, but naive youth, into someone who has to shoulder the world.

As Sol and Byeong-ho reached the front gate of the manor, Sol suddenly spoke just as Byeong-ho was about to leave.


"Brother Byeong-ho, I have a question I've been meaning to ask you for a while now."


Byeong-ho paused and turned to look at Sol with a curious expression, silently telling him to continue.


"It's a small matter I can't help but think about. When we first talked and I asked you to find Brother Son, you said the Demonic Sect was likely responsible for stealing geniuses' Innate Dharmas."


Sol stopped here as he thought his question was obvious. Since Byeong-ho was a part of the later generation of the Forgotten Sect, the way he spoke back then made it seem like he hated the Forgotten Sect.


Sol wanted to know whether he was just saying that to not draw suspicion to himself, as at that time Sol had no knowledge his Master was related to the Forgotten Sect, whom the Holy Sect and Great Clans saw as enemies.
