"This sounds so similar to the Endless Notes." When Yu Sheng finish reading the information the system provided he ponder, "So all I need to do is create a song that fits a specific emotion that will allow me to use one element."
"If I want to defeat those robed men what I would need is absolute calmness since my greatest asset isn't my strength, but my intelligence."
"At the same time an emotion depicting a cold emotion could allow me to bring my intelligence to another level, allowing me to calculate every possibility."
"Hm, whatever. Let's just see what I can do." Shaking his head Yu Sheng closed his eyes and imagine a piano.
Out of thin air a rainbow color piano appear, floating around his hands. From what he read this piano is called the Bringer of Music.
The Bringer of Music can transform into any instrument to assist him in creating a song fitting for the Eternal Melody.
"Let's see what I can make." Seeing the piano Yu Sheng smiled. "Its been a long time since I last play a piano after all." After setting his goals on making his father's business reach great heights back on earth he stopped using instruments overall, using his old music to promote his business.
After all, after over 10 years his old songs were still trending music. Managing to stay in the top 20s for so long.
With new determination Yu Sheng began playing the piano.
Falling from the sky
Life filled with Contempt
Friends forever forgotten
Yu Sheng played a bunch of songs that he made back on earth yet not a single one was able to please the Eternal Melody.
For the next four hours all Yu Sheng did was play the piano, he couldn't even bother with the sounds leaving the room.
"Ah! This isn't going as planned. I have already played a hundred songs I have created with the piano." Rubbing his hair in frustration Yu Sheng groaned. At the rate things were going he wouldn't even be able to get anything done before someone from the Xu Clan comes to investigate his absence.
"Although those people don't give a crap about Xu Wantian, they will definitely come to check up on his progress these past two days." Sighing he finally made up his mind.
"Since none of my calming songs are able to do the job I guess I will have to go with the first song I have ever made."
Life without meaning
When Yu Sheng was merely 5 years old he had a dream. The dream that Yin Qing'er always found fascinating. The dream about the woman whose entire hair held multiply small galaxies filled with bright planets in it.
Ever since then he felt like that woman in that dream cursed him as ever since then he began lacking certain emotions. He couldn't express his love for his parents, he never let out a tear when in pain and he began smiling less and less until one day he stopped.
It was only after he met Yin Qing'er that he began regaining his emotions. However, her death dealt a serious blow to him and he became far worse than he once was.
He not only stopped smiling and once again stop showing emotions, but he began finding pleasure in evil deeds. Scheming, killing, heck he even had dealings with human trafficking.
Yet even that small bits of pleasure wasn't enough to cure his indifference to the world.
"All because of that damn dream..." Yu Sheng cursed, as he summon back the piano. This time the piano was pitch black, its keyboard filled with the color of blood.
Looking at this grand piano Yu Sheng could swear he could see hands of his fallen victims back on earth reaching out to drag him down to the deepest parts of hell.
Yu Sheng you brat you dare lay your hands on my Yin Clan!
Yu Sheng? Aren't you the Little Music God? Why... why are you stripping me naked... WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?!
Yu Sheng you bastard, you dare call yourself a god, but conduct yourself in human trafficking! Why don't you die—
YU SHENG....!!!!!
Images appear in front of his eyes. The first one being the Yin Clan, his first ever victims. He can still remember the fear in their eyes as they plead for forgiveness and for him to spare their newborn child.
"That was satisfying."
The next image was one of his human trafficking victims. Her tears brought immense pleasure to his sadistic personality back then. "She's lucky I felt pity for her and turned her into one of my personal maids..."
The last image was one of his friends— business partners finding out about his evil deeds. "Ah, Hong Bu if only you kept your mouth shut. I wouldn't have to kill you..."
Yu Sheng walked over the hands crawling on his feet to reach the piano. He began realizing that his original plan to use the song Life without Meaning to enhanced his calculative mind was backfiring.
No matter how many times he told himself to stop something inside him kept telling him to move towards the piano. It was as if he wasn't in control of his body. It was as if the evil will inside him was taking over.
His black eyes became red filled with nothing but bloodlust. He reached towards the piano and his hands began moving.
As he play the song, Yu Sheng began noticing that he never played this song before! Yet even after realizing this, he still continue playing.
"What a beautiful song..." Yu Sheng mumbled to himself.

In a place that looks like a magnificent castle a man stare out the window. His eyes focusing on the moon that shines a dark red color onto the world. As he stare melody enter his ears, the music causing his mind to become conflicted with the thoughts to cause murder.
Unfazed however, the man continue staring at the bloody moon and recalled. "As the prophecy said. The moon will change color and strange music will enter the peoples ears causing every being in the world to go crazy with the lust to kill."
"This means the Prodigy Era has official began. I don't know if our human race will make it out alive, but... I Xu Hei Tian will not watch as we get destroyed."
Somewhere in an Academy a girl with blue-white hair turn around to look at the moon. "So it has finally arrived huh...."
Shaking her head, she turn around and continued her journey.
In the Elf Race, Ling Meixui stare at the red moon, then at a tree that heights seem to reach towards the heavens. In the middle of this tree was a elfen child. Her small figure covered in small wooden branches. These branches seemly putting strange energy into her body.
Ling Meixui stare at the child with tender love and care. "Our Genius Era has finally concluded. It is time for you my child to make a name for yourself and bring our Elven Race back to its previous glory."
Somewhere close to the Witch Race. Men of different physique knelt down in a huge room. A man staring down at all of them. "It is time my brothers! The day we have all been waiting for to claim back our previous glory!"
"Glory to the Divine Magus!"
In the Land of Beast, every major figure was in a meeting discussing about the bloody moon.
"Feng Nu Wang." A man covered in black scales took in a puff of smoke and called out.
"Dragon King." A woman covered in orange-red robes responded in a calming tone.
"Hmph, even after all this time you still don't dare to call me by my name." The man sneered as he puff some smoke towards the woman.
"You stupid dragon. Do you think I have time for your games?" The woman didn't even blink or move at the sight of the approaching smoke. With one wave of her hand the smoke vanish from her sight.
"Stupid? Sorry, we the Evil Black Dragons are not like those so called Pure White Dragons. However, if you want to call someone stupid. Then turn to our dead ancestor grave who causes this stupid war against the Central Domain."
The woman looked at the man with clear disdain written on her face and said mockingly, "You fool. If you consider your ancestor an idiot then what are you?"
Everyone in the room hearing this laughed at her words. Even some people from dragon race couldn't help but snicker. As for the man himself who was being laughed at he choose to remain silent to her words as she had a point, The Dragon King didn't know what to say to retort her.
Seeing his expression Feng Nu Wang shook her head. "Your making a bad decision to ally yourself with the Central Domain."
Seeing the opportunity to get out of this embarrassing situation the man asked. "And why do you think so?"
"Can't you see you are being used by them?"
"Used? Hah! Who dare use the Dragon Race?! If anything we are the ones using the Central Domain people. Just wait, the day will come when they will fall."
Feng Nu Wang stared at the Dragon King for a long time before once more calling him a fool. "Your making a grave mistake, I hope you will back out before its too late. The Prodigy Era has began and we the Beast Race cannot fall behind. Please do not let your arrogance get in the way of us keeping our position in the top 5."
"Also its best if you recall your son from the Central Domain." Saying those last words she got up from her seat and left the meeting along with the other phoenixes that came along.
Hearing her last words the Dragon King sneered again. "That love dumbstruck fool of son of mine. Do you think I haven't tried doing that already?"
In the Yinyue Tribe, Yu Yaojing stare at the moon and smiled. In her hands was Yu Sheng body that has fallen into deep slumber for the past hours.
"Look what you did Little Sheng. You left and stared causing trouble somewhere else. I guess its true what they say. The child always inherits a part of their parents bad habits."
"Go create a mess my child."
The crimson moon encase the entire world. The strong stood witness while the weak lost control of themselves. Their mind becoming corrupted with the lust to kill and as such many died that night.
People who had strong mental resistance tried stopping the massacre, but their wit full thinking resulted in them being hunted down by the masses of those who are inflicted.
Just like the color of the moon, the land and sea was covered red for the entire night. The scent of blood filled the entire Blue Domain.
Obnoxious of all that was going on Yu Sheng fingers stopped moving on the piano. His eyes open, a red light flashing in his pupils.
[You have created a song befitting for the Eternal Melody]
[You may now choose a name for this song]
Listening to the voice in his head Yu Sheng thought long and hard for a name for his new song. He stared at the moon outside and immediately he knew what this song should be called.
"This song shall be called Crimson Night."
[Name has been added. Crimson Night is an song created from the emotion hidden deep inside the host heart. Using the souls of the people you murdered in your past life to give you moments of pleasure we have determine the emotion fitting for this song}
[Excitement is the emotion we have determined. Choosing Element....]
[After some considerations I have come up with three elements that matches this emotion.]
[Fire is one of the most uncontrollable elements. One mistake can cause it to spread far and wide with no stopping. Excitement is somewhat the same, excitement is an emotion bubbling up inside us. Depending on how excited one can be, it can lead to people going crazy. In the past, The Phoenix Ancestor was known for burning billions of experts in her way due to her own craziness and excitement before being cut down by the Yinyue Ancestor.]
[Destruction is an element that main purpose is to cause chaos with no meaning for its actions. From old records it is said that the Asura Race, a race known for its use of the element destruction always use it out of their own excitement to see something known as indestructible or unbeatable crumble to the ground.]
[Blood is an element every living being has. However, there are only a few people in history who were able to turn this element into their own power. One being one of the only three Eternal Experts, The Eternal Blood, Xue Wang who died while facing the Eternal Unknown. This element is known to cause excitement due to the phrase "hot blooded." This is when someones excitement reaches a certain point that their blood begins boiling.]
[Please choose one of the three elements.]
