Twilight Core

Whenever the name Yu YongTian was spoken, it was only in hushed whispers— "Shh! Woe to you for evoking the devil." "Do you have a death wish?" " "Fools whisper his name only if they seek their ruin." Soon after, the summoner would vanish, never to be seen again. Rumors swirled that Yu YongTian took them captive, turning them into vessels to build a demonic army, a force he would use to wreak havoc on the mortal world. His hatred for mortals, and especially the Immortal Sects, was the stuff of legends. So, it was believed by many. ___________ After years of relentless pursuit, Shen YiJun finally crosses paths with him again. But Yu YongTian's first words are as infuriating as ever— "YiJun, I really missed you all these years. Did you miss me?" And Shen YiJun, without hesitation, replies, "Come back with me, Yu YongTian." But Yu YongTian, ever fanning himself with mocking grace, smirks: "If YiJun also misses his Shixiong so much, I'll allow you to… come with me." Thus, Shen YiJun finds himself 'willingly' taken captive by the man he is supposed to stop. _____________ This is a story of Yu YongTian and Shen YiJun, disciples raised under the same sect and master but as incompatible as fire and ice. And when an extrovert meets an introvert, chaos ensues. That is until tragedy strikes and Yu YongTian falls, becoming a feared Demon Lord. Now, Shen YiJun, seen as the only one capable of stopping him, must confront not only Yu YongTian but also the hidden feelings he harbours for him. As secrets unravel, questions also loom: What role does the heaven play in their destinies? And why must the Heavenly Emperor himself descend to interfere?

In a world shaped by gods, destiny, and prophecy, everything follows a predetermined cycle. The Five Goddesses rule the heavens, having sealed away their sole brother, Kaelis, the God of Unity, long ago—twisting his name into the God of Chaos to erase his true purpose. With his fall, the Hero’s Party defeated the Demon Lord, and non-human races perished one by one, leaving only humans to rule the world. Before Kaelis was sealed, however, eight monoliths descended, warning that once every odd century, a Destined One would be born—either a harbinger of chaos or tranquility. This prophecy became an unshakable truth, with the world rising and falling in accordance with these chosen individuals. Yet, centuries later, long after the last Destined One passed, the world faced a new calamity. The ley lines of mana, the lifeblood of magic, began to wither. The Church of the Five declared it divine will, while scholars and mages sought a solution. One woman—a brilliant but infamous sorceress—discovered the cause and took it upon herself to restore the mana flow. She succeeded—but her actions tore open a rift between dimensions, unleashing monsters not born of this world. Though the breach was eventually sealed, the damage was irreversible. The world changed forever, and she vanished into legend—reviled by some, revered by others. Now, in the present era, the world exists in tenuous balance. Monsters roam the land, kings rule their fractured domains, and the Church maintains its iron grip. No new Destined One has emerged. The world expects another cycle to begin. Then, he is born. A child without prophecy, without divine origin, without fate. A soul not from this world. Unlike the Destined Ones of legend, his birth was never foreseen by the gods—an impossibility that throws the celestial order into chaos and confusion. For the first time, something has entered this world without the hand of the divine guiding it. He is not a hero. He is not the chosen one. He is an anomaly. And in a world where destiny dictates all, a man with no fate may be the most dangerous force of all.
