Across the world, through thousands of mountains and rivers, countless valleys and streams, wherever there is sky and earth, there is life. People, beasts, birds, reptiles, fish, plants—life takes on myriad forms, endless and ever-changing. Any living being capable of transcending the cycle of life and death, breaking free from the endless mortal world, can be called an immortal spirit. There are also those who take the opposite path, yet still achieve immortality and become another form of life—these are called demons. I am a demon. After cultivating for seven thousand eight hundred sixty-nine years, I have finally shed my original shell, refined my true form, and achieved the goal I have pursued all my life: to possess a lifespan as long as heaven and earth, to shine alongside the sun and moon, and to attain the endless years of the demonic path.
