In the Frozen Abyss Realm, where eternal night and endless day take turns, seventeen-year-old Lin Jin carries his younger sister across a blizzard-ravaged ice field. Exiled by the Three Realms, this desolate land is so cold that every breath freezes into an icy blade, cutting the throat. As his sister's body grows cold in his arms, black flames suddenly appear in the boy's palm: a sign that the Eye of Eternal Tribulation, sealed for a thousand years, has awakened. From gluttonous ice wolves to lying snow crows, from the Lord of Taotie City to the inspectors of the Three Realms, the boy from the wasteland climbs a throne of bones atop the corpses of ice and fire. Only then do the gods and Buddhas beyond the Ninth Heaven finally remember the truth they buried with their own hands: he was born to be the tyrant of the Frozen Abyss Realm.
