Broken and confined to a wheelchair, he is stripped of all but his indomitable will. In one world, power flows from the mastery of energy—cultivated, refined, and wielded to defy nature itself. In the other, it is carved from the raw strength of flesh and the a legacy of bloodlines, where lineage and physical dominance reign supreme. Driven by an unrelenting hunger for truth, Sollivan’s path is not shaped by fate but by his iron resolve to navigate a labyrinth of deceit, secrets, and forces beyond mortal comprehension. As he fights to preserve his humanity, both worlds conspire to erode it, forcing him to confront the fragility of his own soul. His daring gambit to manipulate both worlds could crown him in triumph or doom him to ruin. In a reality where only the strongest endure, Sollivan must rise—or be obliterated.

Once every 10,000 years, the heavens open, and the Mortal Realm is cast into turmoil. The Great Reset begins—a cosmic reckoning where empires fall, beasts awaken, and only the strongest carve their names into eternity. For those who survive, the path to the Astral Realm and the right to claim divinity awaits. Raikai, a warrior forged in storms, wields the power of the Celestial Iron Body Cultivation, his flesh tempered into living steel. His Death Arms—twin scythes bound by chains—dance like a mythological dragon, crackling with lightning, capturing and tearing apart those who stand in his way. Beside him stands Shinryu, swift and precise, blessed by the Celestial Tiger. His Death Arms, a pair of white leather gloves with retractable claws, strike with divine speed—every slash a whisper of the heavens’ fury. Together, they ascend the path of blood and power, bound by brotherhood yet tested by fate. Their bond is their greatest strength, but in a world where the Death Arms grow with their wielders—feeding on their victories and failures—power often demands a terrible price. As the 10,000-year Reset begins, ancient titans stir, forgotten sects rise from the shadows, and primordial beasts long thought extinct awaken. The heavens will bear witness as Raikai and Shinryu defy the gods—or die trying. In an age where flesh is reforged into iron and weapons evolve alongside the soul—two brothers will challenge destiny itself!
