They all reside in the divine realm from where they control their followers and gather faith to increase their strength.

He was once an honor man who sacrificed himself as a police man for the criminal to relinquish his possession of the innocent girl. Born again into the Azure Mystic World, he was reborn into one of the most powerful families. But destiny does not allow even the most powerful of people to have an easy ride right from the very start of this new life. The essence of his physique-a thing old and unclassified in this world-had mysteriously been drawn out into the darkness while still locked within his mother's womb; sucked out, it would seem, through a vent in his wall by his twin brother. Even with that went his talents; he was left with merely being labeled as "the waste" by the people around. Mocked by his relatives, friends, and clan members, he was a stain in the reputation of his family. Was he indeed destined to do nothing, or was fate merely messing him around in a twisted game? As such memories of his previous life started emerging in him, he eventually found himself at the threshold. Was he going to stick with his family, who had never loved him even a little? Or would he leave them and enter into a different world, one way beyond anybody's imagination, all those who were against him, where people looked down upon him? Finally, when he decided to leave his clan, he encountered an old man severely ill and at the point of death. Human instinct urged him to save the old man. For saving his life, that old man gave him a weird herb and asked him to absorb its energy. He did, but his cultivation, already very weak, fell even lower with that. A bitter question raised within him: would he resent the man or consider this strange occurrence yet another trial on his journey? This road was his to walk alone, well-paved with only those trials that only he could endure. He was not born to be ordinary; he was born to be invincible, to conquer the past, present, and future.

Rei, a young man trapped in a world different from his own, is reborn once again, with fragmented memories of past lives that are as elusive as they are painful. Marked by the injustice and contempt that haunted him in those existences, his soul holds a mixture of resentment and ambition. But this time, his determination has taken a course that is both dark and clear: he seeks to transform the world in his own way. In his mind, the idea of justice has lost all innocence; his desire for well-being is intertwined with a thirst for control and dominance. Rei is willing to do whatever it takes to build a reality that benefits him, no matter who he must subdue or how many battles he must fight. He is well aware that the task is a monstrous one, that his own vision may seem evil in the eyes of many, but that is irrelevant to him. The only thing clear to him is that the world will know his true strength and that, under his hand, traditional justice will be as obsolete as the past he seeks to leave behind.
