The main story does not begin here; it's a prerequisite to know about the warlords and the world before you read the story. Read this after Chapter 1 of the main story.
--
"This world is not fair. None are born equal." is the world of humanity lives in. Better said it is the one of the world where humanity lives.
The warlords are the primal humans who have the ability to protect humanity. They are born with the supernatural ability that allows them to protect humanity from incoming dangers. Each warlord has a unique ability, and their limits are based on how many orbs of powers they have.
The orbs of power are the special objects that the warlords can consume to make themselves more powerful. The orbs of power for each warlord are unique, and they cannot consume other warlord's orbs. At a warlord's birth, the number is given to them randomly; this creates a natural disadvantage where some are born much stronger than the others.
The world is dying slowly and soon all creatures will meet their end, the ones who have knowledge try to keep it themselves, it not a realm of endless possibilities, where one cannot rise to the top if not born special.
On the side, there are worlds where cultivation happens. Where are is a hope of growth for everyone, fight with your skill and work your way by cultivating your skills and killing stronger enemies in a vast and alive world. Different stories and people come together, and fight their dangers.
The world is much more freedom to the weak and hope for growth of the one's to dare try to rise their way up into the society.
What happens when the two world exchange,
Someone who rose the ranks in the cultivation world comes to defend the world of non-cultivation where everything is on the decline learning true despair and darkness that lurk inside the hearts of humanity.
