**The universe is a talisman, and I am the tribulation ash carved into it**
In Galactic Year 3287, humanity entered the “Interstellar Cultivation Era,” caught between the shock of wormhole jumps and the discovery of relics from an ancient cultivation civilization. The Federation Academy of Sciences sought to industrialize psychic energy, while the cultivation clans vowed to defend the celestial-vein energy network to the death. Their covert struggle turned the entire star system into a chessboard.
**Lin Ye** is an armless teenager who scavenges on a trash planet. His left arm is a homemade tribulation-struck wood prosthesis, and when his blood falls, it blooms into the phantom image of an Udumbara flower. Every night, he uncontrollably draws formations from his past-life sect, yet on the wreckage of mechs he carves sword techniques lost for a thousand years. It turns out he is the reincarnation of a mighty cultivator who once faced the heavenly tribulation, his memories erased by the laws of the universe.
