Ji Ning (Desolate Chaos)

==Summary==
Upon the climax of the civil war that almost decimated the Three Realms, Ji Ning had broken through to the level of an Elder God and slain the foe that had been a cause of so much suffering and bloodshed for his homeland. Unfortunately, he had lost friends, family and his spouse as a result of the conflict. Thankfully, the Three Realms had survived and would be reborn anew as they rebuilt themselves and ensured such a catastrophe would never happen again.
Be it the compulsion of an oath, the need for revenge against the Mindlord, his ambitions of reaching the apex or the small hope he keeps of resurrecting his wife, Ning ventures outside his home and into the desolate primordial chaos, where he would rise to the apex through the path of the sword and the unyielding determination of his heart.
