In a future where human genes begin to mutate, society finds itself divided into two extremes—those blessed with extraordinary genes who awaken incredible superpowers, and those cursed with monster genes, transforming into terrifying abominations. Xingcun, once an ordinary man, becomes the latter—a monster among men. But just as he loses everything, a heroine sacrifices her life to grant him a second chance. Reborn at the moment of her death, Xingcun now carries the burden of his monstrous form, and a vow to rewrite fate itself.
In this new life, Xingcun the Sea King returns—not as a destroyer, but as a silent protector. Hiding among super-powered elites, he battles his monstrous instincts daily while secretly hunting other monsters like himself. Armed with a tragic past and a growing desire for redemption, he begins a lonely war from the shadows—stealing fragments of divine power and suppressing the ancient demon god’s resurrection. But every power stolen pulls him closer to the abyss. As the line between monster and man blurs, can he hold on to his humanity, or will the dark destiny within his genes consume him entirely?
This tale is not just a battle of strength, but of identity. With a dark anti-hero, monster-hybrid evolution, secret wars, and the emotional pull of a fated bond, this story twists the genes of traditional superhero tales into a thrilling hybrid of science fiction and supernatural warfare. It’s a fresh take on the “monster from within” concept—layered with hidden loyalties, cosmic forces, and a race against rebirth.
