The world was cold.
Not in the way a winter breeze might chill the skin. No—this was a different kind of cold. Eternal. Absolute. The kind that froze not just matter, but time itself. Within the still silence of the void, a single consciousness stirred.

Welcome back, Host. Let us shatter fate again.
Qian Tian opened his ethereal eyes. He was floating inside a womb—yet fully aware, fully conscious. His senses had long surpassed mortal limits. Even as his body developed, his spirit had already begun drawing in the purest soul energy from the Douluo Plane.
He wasn't just reborn.
He was installed.
"System," his mind projected, voice smooth, calm, and emotionless. "Show me my current status."

A smirk curled in the void.
So this was the douluo world. Spirit rings, beasts, soul power, and gods that toyed with mortals like chess pieces.
Not anymore.
They'll kneel, Qian Tian thought, his will already bending the soul particles around him. This world will not move without my command.

Six Years Later – Spirit Hall Grand Temple, Awakening Ceremony
Dozens of children stood trembling in the sacred hall, white-robed elders observing from the high altar. At the very front, sitting upon a golden throne, was a man whose mere presence bent the space around him.
Qian Daoliu. The Grand Priest of Spirit Hall. Rank 99.
He watched the ceremony with passive eyes—until a small boy stepped forward.
He was only six, but his body was already tall and athletic. His silver-white hair shimmered with faint ice particles, and his golden eyes carried the calm of a king, the fury of a god.
"My grandson…" Qian Daoliu whispered. "Qian Tian."
The Grand Priest himself stepped down from the altar.
"I will awaken his spirit personally."
A hushed silence fell.
No one else had ever been granted such an honor.
Qian Tian stepped into the center of the array. Energy surged. Golden light and glacial mist rose around him, spiraling like a storm. The temperature in the chamber dropped instantly.
Children began shivering. Ice formed across the pillars.
Qian Tian's calm voice rang out inside his head:
System. Release both martial spirits. No restrictions. No suppression. Full Divine Revelation Mode.
Confirmed.
A blast of light exploded outward.
Above Qian Tian's body, two martial spirits emerged simultaneously.
On the left, a massive Ice Phoenix, its wings spanning thirty meters, roared with frozen majesty. Its eyes glowed blue, and every beat of its wings turned the air into frost.
On the right, a six-winged Seraphim floated behind Qian Tian, golden light bathing the entire temple. It wielded a radiant sword forged from pure will.
Everyone was speechless.
A priest collapsed to his knees. An elder fainted. Even Qian Daoliu took a step back.
"…Impossible."
Twin martial spirits? Yes.
But not just any twin spirits.
One was divine. The other was mythic.
Both were… perfect.
Suddenly, light flooded into Qian Tian's body. Spirit energy rushed into his meridians as if the world itself were feeding him.

His body glowed.
Two spirit rings appeared beneath his feet. Both black and gold.
"...Two hundred thousand years?!" someone gasped.
Qian Daoliu stepped forward. He studied his grandson—no, the divine being in front of him—with cautious awe.
"What are you?" he finally asked.
Qian Tian opened his eyes.
"I am Qian Tian," he said coldly. "The one who will rewrite the fate of this world."
