Return to the Peak

Peerless, a title that inspired fear, awe, and envy all across the world. Its holder, a warrior with the sole name of Murin, earned his reputation by brutally carving his way through countless adversaries up to the top, where he reigned for centuries. That is, until he disappeared from the world. It was a mystery that was discussed for decades, but the truth was he had simply been bored out of his skull for what felt like an eternity. What was the point of being the strongest if nobody in the world was your opponent? If you could never again experience the thrill of combat? After living the remainder of his days out in what felt like purgatory, he eventually stumbled on an unprecedented solution. The fabled rebirth technique, something that he'd only ever heard of in fairy tales. How great was his shock when, after practicing it, he actually succeeded in using it; falling unconscious and waking up in a body that wasn't his own. Not to mention, a body he wasn't welcome in. Yet, in the end, he wouldn't have it any other way. Who would ever turn down an opportunity to relive their journey to past glory all over again? His wish had been granted, and there was no chance in hell he'd ever let it slip. So follow along, through bloody, nail-biting fights as well as all the mysteries that this world of martial arts has to offer. This is a tale of Murin's second journey from rock bottom all the way to the top, one that people will speak of for the rest of time.
