Yan Ming placed his hands on the cold hard ground and pushed his ragged body up, his body searing with pain, his veins pulsing rapidly.

"Where am I? Where is this place? My body aches." He muttered while checking his surroundings.

Everything in sight as far as he could see were trees, endless trees stretching across the horizon.

'This scenery, the air here, it's all too familiar but why am I in the Mortal realm? Am I still alive or this is just an illusion?' he thought, leaning against a tree.

"Yin Chen is still alive, and he had the guts to plot against me after what happened back then." He said while raising his head, looking at the clear skies above.

"It really is the mortal realm, the thin Qi in the air, it all reminds me of back then."

Yin Chen was one of the first generation primordials just like Yan Ming without an official title but he had a flourishing empire of his own during the early ages with all races flocking around for shelter, the Divine realm and Infernal realm stayed out of his way till he plotted against Yan Ming.

Yan Ming Retaliated with such intensity his empire and every last bit of it was wiped off the face of the map. Yin Chen naturally suffered the brunt of it, Yan Ming burnt him down to ashes along with his empire, his survival came as a huge surprise to Yan Ming.

'How did I survive and why do I feel so weak? Even when I was stripped of all my cultivation I didn't feel this weak.' he thought when a transparent blue screen suddenly appeared in his view.

{Initiating survival protocol}

{Hell's Mandate System Activated}

{Main Questline Initiated}

{Main Questline: Reclaim ownership of hell}

{Time Limit: 5 years}

{Penalty: Permanent loss of the title "King Of Hell, Ruler of the abyss}

"Reclaim ownership of hell? I was going to do it anyways, the fact I'm alive means I'm taking back what's mine." He said, a cold glint in his eyes.

He stared down at the screen before him with a confused look on his face. "Hell's Mandate System? Tian Luo is that you?"

{Master}

A shrill voice came from the screen, it sounded worn out and withered but Yan Ming recognized it's voice as the mandate that had stayed with him for thousands of years ruling the Infernal Realm side by side with him.

"What happened to you Tian Luo? Where's your body and how am I still alive?"

{Your body crumbled out of existence but I managed to save a part of your soul by sacrificing my physical body in exchange}

"My body crumbled? That's impossible, even if I lose all my cultivation and powers making my physical body crumble in a single attack should be impossible." He said with a hint of speculation in his eyes.

"Unless.."

{Yin Chen attacked you with one of the ten primordial weapons Helios, you couldn't survive the strike and I barely withstood a hit}

"How did he get his hands on a primordial weapon? And Helios of all things."

The ten primordial weapons were created from chaos and hell's mandate was one of them serving as the pillar of the infernal realm, a totem of authority and power that could wield the power of the infernal realm if fully unleashed, in a full scale war the totem would make the wielder invincible by gathering the powers of all the infernal realm armies onto a single point.

Yan Ming's cultivation was sealed and there were no reinforcements with him but he still managed to force back the three generals with just his physical body and title authority, it could be seen how frightening the mandate, ranked as one of the top three primordial weapons was.

Helios, unlike the mandate based on formations and summons was more focused on a single target damage output, forged from the heart of divine yang it was a natural counter to Yan Ming and the abyss races, a full powered strike with Helios from a primordial sovereign vaporized his body in an instant.

"You discarded your physical body to save me, I'll remember this, forget five years, I can't wait that long to see their faces, one year is enough, just one." He muttered, his head raised staring high into the sky.

"Tian Luo where are we?"

{Nexus prime, a planet in the mortal realm}

{Please let down your resistance master I'll upload everything regarding the planet, the system and your new body to your mind}

"Alright, do as you wish." He replied without a second of thought and slumped back on the tree with eyes closed.

A rush of current flew towards his brain rendering him unconscious for a few seconds before his eyes flapped open.

'This will be a little troublesome. Tian Luo, show me the system interface.'

{Hell's Mandate System}

{Name: Yan Ming}

{Age: 19}

{Race: Human}

{Bloodline: None}

{Level: 6 (3rd layer of the Bone tempering Realm)}

{Exp: 437/600}

{HP: 34/130 (Bleeding: -5hp per minute)}

{Qi: 60/60}

{Strength: 35}

{Agility: 21}

{Endurance: 21}

{Authorities}

{1. Primordial Sovereign Of Flames: Fire resistance +100%, Fire affinity +100%}

{2. King Of Hell, Ruler of The Abyss: All citizens of the infernal realm are under your control and must bow to you.}

{3. Wielder Of Hell's Mandate: You wield one of the ten primordial weapons forged from chaos and command the authority of hell, the powers of the infernal realm are bestowed upon you}

Yan Ming's face darkened as he glanced over the interface several times. "Human? What happened to my primordial demon bloodline?"

{Your new body is human, your previous body was already erased from existence and it's bloodline is gone, I have a way for you to recover your bloodline but that will be for later you have to deal with the current issue first}

The shrill voice of Tian Luo came to his ears making him take in a deep breath trying to calm himself down.

"Alright, what do I do?"

{You're currently in the third layer of body tempering Realm and we're stuck in a forest, you're bleeding with every passing second and risk dying out if this goes on, I already exhausted all my powers to maintain this state and keep you alive away from sight there's nothing I can do, I'm sorry master}

  • What Remains: End Of Book One

    A year later, the coalition that had once formed purely from desperate necessity had settled into something considerably more permanent — a genuine, lasting alliance between eleven territories that continued cooperating on trade, mutual defense, and the ongoing work of ensuring the Concord's dissolved structures never again coalesced into anything resembling their former, coercive unity. Tian Shen, now formally recognized as the alliance's primary coordinating voice, had proven himself as capable a peacetime leader as he'd been a wartime commander, the Tian clan's territory flourishing under his continued, thoughtful governance. Long Xue had settled into a role as the alliance's primary liaison to the void dragon clan's reforming leadership, her own journey from grief-driven hunter to genuine, trusted ally now complete in ways that had transformed her entirely from the cold, calculating figure who'd once ambushed Yan Ming at the Withering Garden's threshold. She vi

  • A Quiet Return

    Nearly six months after the convergence's collapse, with the coalition's rebuilding efforts finally settling into sustainable, ongoing rhythm rather than urgent, demanding crisis, Yan Ming and Qing Chun found themselves, for the first time since their tournament victory so long ago, with genuine, unhurried time to simply exist together without the weight of imminent catastrophe pressing against every decision. "Do you remember," Qing Chun said, as they walked together through the same tournament city where their journey had first properly begun, its streets considerably more peaceful now than the chaotic, celebration-filled days following Yan Ming's unexpected victory, "when you told me jade necklaces were useless, and then bought me one anyway?" "I remember," he said, managing a genuine, warm smile at the memory's simplicity, so distant now from everything they'd since endured together. "You still have it?" "Always." She touched the necklace at her throat, the s

  • Rebuilding

    The weeks that followed brought the considerable, demanding work of transitioning from war back toward peace, the coalition's eleven territories gradually shifting their focus from coordinated military preparation toward the equally challenging task of helping the Concord's absorbed sects and territories reestablish independent governance, free from the coercive unity Feng Lie Zun's ambition had once imposed upon them. Tian Shen took a leading role in this transition, his diplomatic skill proving as valuable in peace as it had been in building the original alliance, carefully navigating the complicated process of restoring trust and autonomy to territories that had spent years under the Concord's controlling influence. "It's slower work than the battle itself, in some ways," he admitted to Yan Ming, during one of their regular strategy sessions turned peace-building consultations. "Fighting has a clear beginning and end. Rebuilding trust, restoring genuine inde

  • The Warden's Confirmation

    Three days after the battle's conclusion, as the coalition's forces settled into the considerable work of managing the Concord's dissolved territory and beginning the delicate process of reintegrating absorbed sects back into independent governance, Yan Ming found himself once more drawn toward quiet solitude, old habit of reflection reasserting itself amid the aftermath's demanding, ongoing activity. He found Qing Chun and Long Xue already waiting near the makeshift camp's quiet edge when a familiar, layered voice broke the evening's stillness. "You've accomplished something remarkable," the Warden said, materializing with the same unhurried, patient grace that had marked his previous appearances, grey robes settling around him as though he'd simply always been present, watching quietly from just beyond ordinary perception. "I confess, even I hadn't fully anticipated this particular resolution." "You knew about Feng Lie Zun's manipulation?" Yan Ming asked, old

  • The Battle

    They emerged from the spire's shattered entrance to a scene of considerable, ongoing chaos, the coalition's massive diversionary force still locked in fierce engagement with the Concord's outer defenses, though the battle's character had visibly shifted in the time they'd spent within the spire's confines. Concord soldiers, no longer receiving coordinated command from whatever central authority had directed their earlier, disciplined resistance, fought now with the scattered, uncertain desperation of an army that sensed something fundamental had changed. "The convergence's collapse must be affecting them," Yan Ming observed, studying the battlefield's shifted dynamics with old, tactical assessment despite his considerable exhaustion. "Whatever loyalty bound them to Feng Lie Zun's cause, it's clearly tied at least partially to the array's continued function." "Then let's make sure that collapse continues," Long Xue said, already moving toward the nearest cluster

  • What Remains Between Brothers

    They rested amid the chamber's settling wreckage for a long while, exhaustion from the confrontation's staggering demands finally, fully catching up to all four of them. Qing Chun leaned heavily against Yan Ming, her cultivation reserves depleted almost entirely by the containment technique's considerable exertion, though her eyes remained open, alert despite the fatigue. "You're alright?" Yan Ming asked, old concern evident despite his own considerable exhaustion. "I will be," she said, managing a tired but genuine smile. "Tianyi says the depletion is significant but not dangerous. Just needs time to properly recover." Long Xue settled nearby, void-attribute qi finally quieting after the confrontation's demanding exertion, her gaze drifting toward Feng Lie Zun's kneeling, exhausted form with old, complicated wariness that hadn't entirely faded despite his genuine cooperation. "What happens to you now?" Feng Lie Zun looked up slowly, old weariness and somethi
