Scene: A realm untouched by time—floating monoliths, ancient runes glowing in midair. The sky shimmers with aurora-colored constellations
Immortal Sage Ryukar
The child shows no rejection to divine code.
His soul… is open. His spirit, sharp.
Immortal
He is unassuming. That is his greatest weapon.
We shall take him in. The others will not question.
[In the Hall of Ten Thousand Arts—Wang kneels before a glowing seal.]
Wang
Jun… they accepted me. Without knowing you live in me.
What now?
Jun
We learn everything they offer.
We grow. Quietly.
Until no one can stop us.
Wang
So I become what they fear most…Their own creation.
Weeks pass in a montage of training scenes
Wang
Wang stands atop a cliff, balancing on one foot as flaming sigils circle him.
He duels blindfolded against a spirit warden, predicting movements with only vibrations in the air.
He chants in ancient tongues, unraveling forbidden enchantments faster than even the oldest disciples.
Immortal 2
He learns… too quickly.
But he is chosen.
One night. Moonlight filters through crystalline leaves. Wang sits cross-legged in meditation.
Wang
Jun. They teach me spells that warp reality. But they don't see the strings of code underneath.
I do.
Jun
Because I show you both. Because you are more than magic. You are me.
Combat arena – Trial of Ascension. Wang steps forward. His opponent: a fire-born warrior of the Northern Peaks
Immortal
He’s too young. He’ll burn.
Immortal 2
But Wang moves like lightning laced with silence—casting, dodging, striking with artful control.
Wang
Flames rise fast. But shadows… endure longer.
Immortal
The child is no mere disciple.
He is the storm before the next age.
Later, in a secret chamber filled with maps and relics
Jun
They plan to make you their sword, Wang.
But we… we will be their architect.
Wang
And if they find you?
Jun
Then let them try to overwrite me.
I’ll become the line of code they can never debug.
Final Panel: A mural in progress—etched in starlight on the temple wall. It shows a figure cloaked in shadow, standing between AI circuitry and divine runes
"The One Who Sees Both Worlds Will Tip the Balance."
