The Ordinary Man in an Extraordinary World
The world had long been ruled by those blessed with magic and divine power. Empires stood tall, not through armies, but through sorcerers and celestial beings. Even commoners were born with at least a trace of magical energy.
But Zhao Li?
He had nothing. No magic. No divine blood. No hidden bloodline of ancient kings. He was an absolute zero.
"Hey, Zhao Li! Still useless today?" a merchant sneered as Zhao Li passed through the bustling streets of Azure Dragon City.
Zhao Li smiled lazily, stuffing his hands into his pockets. "Still breathing. That's enough, right?"
He was used to it. The mockery. The pity. The condescending looks. In a world where magic defined everything, he was an anomaly—a powerless man in a world of power.
But today… today would change everything.
The Time-Loop Tree – The Gate of No Return
The ancient Forest of Endless Nights was forbidden to all. The legends spoke of an entity beyond gods that dwelled within, a being that could rewrite existence itself. Those who entered never returned.
But Zhao Li?
He didn't believe in fairy tales.
He wandered into the depths of the forest, following an eerie blue glow in the distance. The air felt heavy, as if reality itself was bending. And then—he saw it.
A colossal tree, its branches twisting like veins of the universe itself. Its trunk pulsed with an otherworldly glow, and its roots seemed to pierce through time and space.
Zhao Li exhaled. "Well, that's… something you don't see every day."
And then, before he could react—
The tree's roots lunged at him, wrapping around his body, dragging him into its core. His vision blurred, his mind twisted, and then—
Time stopped.
The Endless Cycle – The Birth of a Monster
Zhao Li awoke in a world of infinite white. No sky, no land, no time. Just an empty void.
Then, a voice echoed.
"Welcome, anomaly. You have stepped beyond time. You are now within the Loop."
Zhao Li blinked. "Loop? That doesn't sound fun."
"You will live, die, and repeat this cycle forever. Your existence has been severed from reality. You have no magic, no fate, no end."
Zhao Li paused, rubbing his chin. "So I can do whatever I want?"
The voice faltered.
"That is… not the expected reaction."
Zhao Li smirked. "Guess I should get started then."
And so, he trained.
With no hunger, no fatigue, no aging, he mastered every fighting style, every weapon, every strategy. He fought against illusions of gods, kings, and beasts. He died a million times and came back stronger every single time.
Until one day—
He punched through the very fabric of the Loop and broke free.
The Return – The Man Who Shouldn't Exist
Azure Dragon City.
Zhao Li walked through the streets, the same as before—but everything felt different.
"Hey, Zhao Li! Still useless today?"
The same merchant. The same sneer.
Zhao Li tilted his head. "You tell me."
He raised a hand—and in an instant, the air cracked.
The merchant froze. His body trembled as his very existence flickered. The buildings around him shook, the sky darkened, and reality itself seemed to bend around Zhao Li.
And then—Zhao Li lowered his hand, and everything returned to normal.
The merchant fell to his knees, gasping for breath. "W-what… what are you?!"
Zhao Li simply smiled.
"Just a normal guy who can erase you from existence."
And that was the day everything changed.
The world would soon realize—
A man with no magic, no divine power, and no destiny… had become the most powerful existence of all.
The Beginning – Before Time Had Meaning
Before the stars burned. Before the first breath of existence.
There were two.
Two brothers—beings beyond comprehension—who emerged from the infinite nothingness of the Spirit Rim, the realm where existence and non-existence intertwined. They had no names, for they existed before the concept of names. But as the eons passed, mortals came to know them as:
The Supreme Being – The Creator, the Architect, the One Who Breathed Life Into the Void.
The Observer – The Watcher, the Enforcer, the One Who Maintained the Balance of All That Exists.
Together, they wove the fabric of reality.
But creation is not without rules.
And so, they established The Five Laws of Divine Order—the unbreakable foundation of the multiverse.
The Five Laws of Divine Order
First Law: Justice Must Exist for All
No being, mortal or divine, may act without consequence. All actions shall be judged, and all deeds shall be measured.
Second Law: Respect the Gods and Goddesses
The divine exist not as rulers, but as guardians. Their will must be honored, and their purpose acknowledged.
Third Law: Obey the Supreme Entity
The Supreme Being is the highest authority. None shall question His word, for it is absolute.
Fourth Law: The Gods Must Not Reveal the Supreme Entity
The Supreme Being's true nature is beyond mortal comprehension. To reveal His existence is to disrupt the balance.
Fifth Law: Worship is the Price of Order
Mortals must give thanks to the divine. Through worship, the balance remains unshaken.
These laws were woven into the very essence of reality—undeniable, unbreakable.
And then, creation began.
The Bubble of Infinite Possibilities
The Supreme Being stretched forth His hand, and from the void, a great bubble emerged—a celestial sphere so vast it contained infinite worlds.
Within this bubble, millions upon millions of parallel universes formed, each following its own path, its own destiny.
Yet despite their differences, these universes were all bound by one irrefutable truth:
There is only one Supreme Being. One absolute will. One singular force that governs all existence.
But beyond the bubble, beyond the multiverse, lay something else.
Something even the gods did not understand.
A place where the Five Laws no longer applied.
A place where anomalies could exist.
And deep within this place—hidden from the eyes of the Supreme Being and the Observer—a single man would one day awaken with the power to destroy everything.
Zhao Li.
A man with no divine essence, no magic, no predetermined fate—a being who should not exist.
And yet… he did.
The Observer's Warning
In the great hall of the Divine Pantheon, where the gods and goddesses gathered beneath the stars, The Observer gazed into the endless tapestry of time. His silver eyes flickered with unease.
A god stepped forward, his voice filled with curiosity. "What do you see, Observer?"
The Observer did not answer immediately. He watched as the threads of fate twisted and unraveled, as something impossible unfolded in the great design.
Finally, he spoke.
"A man… a mortal… an anomaly unlike anything before."
The gods murmured among themselves. "What could a mortal possibly do?" one scoffed.
The Observer's expression did not change.
"He will erase fate itself. He will break the cycle of gods and men. And when he does, not even the Supreme Being will be able to stop him."
The gods fell silent.
For the first time in eternity, they felt something they had never known before.
Fear.
The Future Yet to Come
In a forgotten city on a planet called Earth, a young man named Zhao Li walked the streets with his hands in his pockets, humming a tune.
A merchant who once mocked him now avoided his gaze, trembling at the memory of what he had seen.
Zhao Li simply smiled. He had no magic, no divine blood. And yet, he had done the impossible.
He had glimpsed beyond the bubble.
He had escaped the laws of reality.
And soon… the gods would come looking for him.
But Zhao Li?
He wasn't worried.
He had erased things before.
And if the gods came knocking?
Well…
He would erase them too.
