Chapter 1 - Li Qu
...
In the void of absolute darkness and silence.
There was a piece of land floating aimlessly, with the only light source available in the void from the glow of a silhouette.
A wooden hut was seen on the floating land as an old man sat outside the hut on his recliner.
He was glowing so brightly as if the light from the glow that was forming on his body would threaten to disperse into particles.
He looked like he was as old as the universe itself, hair and facial hair as white as snow with wrinkles as deep as the cracks on the soil surrounding the wooden hut and eyes as deep as the abyss that if one stared into it, they would succumb into them without realizing it.
Li Qu was reminiscing on the times way before he became what he was.
"I guess this is the end of my lifespan? How pathetic."
He sighed with a hint of regret and unwillingness.
He had lived for an innumerable number of years, so much so that he had already lost count and was at the end of his natural lifespan.
He had treasures as abundant as the most powerful kingdoms and sects.
His cultivation was as high as the Heavenly Emperor from Karmic Palace but without anyone knowing of it as he had isolated himself ever since he broke through and passed down the mantle.
Li Qu had no friends as anyone that interacted with him was too scared to even hold a normal conversation as his reputation was known throughout the universe. Not that he cared about it anyway.
"Truly… The view at the top of the mountain is lonely."
The only thing he regretted was not experiencing the dream he had when he was just a young boy with ambition and not knowing the way of the world.

...
He slowly closed his eyes and awaited his impending eternal slumber. He stroked his beard for the last time as light particles appeared on his body and he started slowly disintegrating into the void.
Ziiingggg!
Ziiingggg!
Everything was going according to nature when suddenly, a seemingly ordinary pebble vibrated intensely and emitted rainbow light as bright as the sun inside the wooden hut behind the old guy. He opened his eyes abruptly as he sensed the disruption.
"What is happening? That pebble under my pillow?! Why is it reacting only now after I have tried every method I can think of to cause a reaction but to no avail?"
Li Qu was just about to turn his head to look at what was happening when the rainbow light abruptly entered his dantian and he fainted.
As his conscious faded, he had a last thought.
'Whatever. I am already destined to die so it is not my problem anymore. If there is a next life, I hope for it to not be as bland as this one.'

Gods of Arkanoth
The hunter has been betrayed, left alone in the streets of a lugubrious district. Only one goal appears in his eyes: to avenge himself. In his quest to avenge himself, he'll encounter an enigmatic scientist who seems to hide his true nature, a savior pretending to be a God, and the terrible truth of those words, bringing him against something he'd never thought he'd have to affront. This is the odyssey of the hunter, in a quest to put a long overdue end to a war between two worlds. // What to expect:The beginning will surely be intriguing, most of what's happeing won't be directly explained, although there will be some hints about their true roles, but do not worry about some subjects never leaving that misty fog that is unanswered questions! The novel is divided in two parts, the first focusing on uncovering the well-hidden secrets the city of Arkanoth hides, be it concerning its making or its inhabitants. As for the second part, it will be an expedition into the unknown, we could, in a way, say the true start of the journey our three heroes will undertake! I won't say anything more about the second part or else I might tell you an important detail without realizing... As for magic, because yes, there is magic! Although you might not see the shadow of a spell in the first chapters, it will appear in later chapters and will be one of the main subjects of volume 2. There are three heroes, yes, but they will not appear directly. While the first two protagonists appear in quite the beginning, the third will take his time, taking some stroll in the Districts of Arkanoth while we focus on the story of the hunter. But that does not lessen his importance in the story a bit, trust me. What about these three heroes, you say? Well, they all have their own issues, from their character to their torments, and as the story progresses they will have to come clean with their past (character development is to be expected) and will find their reason for fighting, braving all odds. I draw my inspiration from mythology, more precisely Aztec mythology. I want to stay true to a certain extent about it and all the relations between the gods and their role, however I will still change some things to my liking, so do not expect for all of the mythology to be respected to the letter. Finally! I have to say English is a foreign langage for me, so I might not choose the best words or straight-up miswrite something, if it bothers your experience, just tell me in the comments and I'll look into it! It is also my first time writing a book, so some parts might seem sloppy, but I hope I will be able to improve throughout this journey so as to give the most enjoyable reading experience to you. // Who might enjoy this story: Firstly, if you like deep lore and stories in which past plays a big role, you will like how everything unravels to show the hidden truths of the world. However if you do not appreciate not instantly understanding what's happening or who - or even what - this person might be, then you might not appreciate the story. There will be disturbing and gore descriptions, so if you're sensitive, don't like reading about someone being beheaded and such, you should probably pass this one. There is strong langage, although I won't abuse it, I won't be lying saying no insults will appear. Finally, the heroes will not always win, they will sometime lose battles, be it important ones or unimportant, and they will, most of the time, not come out unscathed from those. // Time Schedule : once every two sundays at 7:pm Ps : feel free to tell me if something is bad, or feel wrong with the book, it really helps me. I've written till' chapter 4 (in my mother tongue, so I'll still have to translate), however I'll make some minor and major changes, thus it will take some time to post them. Schedule will probably not change after releasing chapter 4, so don't worry, it won't take even longer to post a chapter than it already is. Enjoy the ride :)
