Summary: Before he reached the pinnacle of power, he was just a talented disciple with no hunger for greatness- only a quiet promise, and a path he never meant to stray from. Sataou wasn’t chasing glory. He had a sharp mind, a relaxed spirit, and a place in the Shengu Sect- earned more through quiet dedication than burning ambition. His cultivation was anything but simple: his Void affinity demanded emotional control, even as the world around him refused to let him remain whole. And when that balance is broken, what remains loses what makes it human. The Void is endless. The Void is absence. The Void is all. The Void does not forgive. From its depths, a new man will rise- One who will stop at nothing to sever the chains of a captive world. This is not a tale of ascension. It is the story of what is lost along the way. The Immortals' Mask is set in the same universe as Will of the Immortals, and acts as a companion series. It follows the origin of Satoro Sataou, marking his rise to power and the true cost of that ascension. The Immortals' Mask takes place ~2000 years prior to the events of Will of the Immortals. See what shaped the world of Cultivators and gods, and how Sataou's rise changed everything... while nearly costing him the same.
