The First Great War was against a single person—the Soul Emperor. Years later, the Second Great War started because the Inheritor of the Soul Emperor wanted to open a portal to the mysterious and dangerous Demon Realm. As such, while the Soul Emperor had many contributions to the magical islands suspended in the sky, his name was still considered a taboo. Now, hundreds of years later, his power surfaced again.

Now, Arin must master both Eastern cultivation and Western techno-sorcery before their choices—and the readers guiding them—unravel existence itself.
