Lu Chen, a young man from a remote frontier town, is set up by his family elders to be sacrificed to a sword. But at the bottom of the Sword Burial Pool, he finds a rusty broken sword: Blazeworld.
When the Chaos Dao Body within him awakens, the young man raises his sword to the heavens. Behind him lie the burned ruins of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion, the shattered altar of the Witch God, and the upside-down Abyss of Nine Hells...
From good-for-nothing to Night Watchman, he will use a broken sword to burn through the fate forged in bronze,
and, amid the ember flames that make gods and Buddhas throughout the heavens tremble, light a path for those who come after, one they need not walk on their knees.
“If these nine heavens have no room for mortals to raise their heads...”
“Then I’ll make myself the furnace and melt the Three Thousand Great Daos!”
“You filled the stone tablets with the words ‘impossible to surpass.’ Then I’ll add one line beneath every prohibition: Lu Chen came here, and broke through with his sword.”
