Chapter 5: The Calm Before the Selection
Five years had passed since Kyle; now YuXuan was reincarnated into this new world.
In that time, he had grown from a crying infant into a curious, wide-eyed child with a brain running far ahead of his age. He didn’t just learn to walk or talk — he learned everything he could.
About the world.
About cultivation.
He now knew the name of this world — Eternal Star Heavenly World — and it was nothing short of insane.
In the Eternal Star Heavenly World, children typically began cultivating at age ten, once their meridians stabilized and their minds could endure the strain of qi flow.
A sky with one massive sun and two glowing moons hung above them. A world where people flew on swords, shattered mountains with a punch, and split seas with a casual flick of their sleeves.
This was a true cultivation world.
And it was vast.
The world was divided into seven massive domains, each one ruled by an ancient power. The Yu Clan — his clan — ruled one of them. The Huan Clan, his mother’s family, ruled another. The remaining five were in the hands of other equally terrifying ancient families.
And that was just the beginning.
