In a world where strength dictates fate, De-Reece walks a lonely path. Once an ordinary young man from London, his life was torn apart the moment he and his brothers discovered ancient artifacts—a ring each for them, and a dragon-shaped pendant for De. The world twisted, reality fractured, and in an instant, they were transported to a foreign realm governed by martial might and spiritual cultivation. But the journey began with loss. Separated from his brothers upon their arrival, De found himself alone, an outsider in a land where the strong ascend and the weak are left behind. With only the mysterious pendant and a burning resolve, he must navigate the unforgiving world of cultivation—where every step forward demands sacrifice, and secrets lurk behind every shadow. As whispers of a hooded alchemist spread through the village and suspicions rise, De’s struggle to grow stronger becomes entangled with forces both ancient and dangerous. Yet, his goal remains steadfast: to forge his own path, uncover the truth behind the artifacts, and find his missing brothers—no matter the cost. For in this world, the path to strength is not only arduous—it is utterly, relentlessly lonely.
