The Heavenly Emperor's Burial, Part Ten

This book starts slowly. The pacing isn’t fiery, and you may even find it a little uneventful.

But if you stick with it until Chapter Ten, you’ll see that none of the setup was wasted.

A slow burn, but never careless; ordinary, but never mediocre.

Give me a little patience, and I’ll give you a story you never saw coming.

Fu Shi is the son of royalty. His talents have vanished, his dantian is shattered, and the world considers him useless. Yet the hand of fate has already begun to move in secret.

Three Thunder Diagram Swords, cutting souls and sealing gods. A diagram chain in the sea of consciousness, depicting life and death in full. Fu Shi, a young man burdened by his clan’s vendetta and a fractured soul-sense, returns from the Thunderbreak Island and sets out on the path of cultivating diagram towers and soul patterns. His diagram soul is extraordinary, and diagram awareness arises within him of its own accord. He possesses a Thunder-type Diagram Spirit Eye beyond ordinary comprehension, and the day his talent awakens, the Diagram Realm is shaken. In a world where “diagrams” are the ultimate truth, diagram masters are revered as vessels of the laws of heaven and earth. Yet Fu Shi uses his diagram soul to forge a path, his poison soul to refine a realm, and his thunder soul to become a sword. Step by step, he breaks the seals of the diagram towers and absorbs the remnants of awareness from the Diagram Abyss. He inherits the lost “Core of the Diagram Realm” and fuses the laws of diagrams, the source patterns of water, poison breath that devours souls, and the Thunder God’s vertical eye, forging an entirely new soul-chain formation: the Seventh Form of the Diagram Soul, Diagram Ring; Diagram Rupture, Counter-Awareness; the Diagram Master Star Chain System… Behind every form lies a “question” about the true nature of the Diagram Realm. He doesn’t cultivate his diagram soul to control it, but to break the Diagram Realm’s rule of “enslaving soul-awareness.” His enemy is the Diagram Realm itself. His thunder soul will tear open the seal imposed by the “Divine Emperor of the Diagram Abyss” and return all diagrams to a path of freedom. This is the ultimate clash between soul-awareness and the philosophy of the Diagram Realm, a divine record written by a diagram-maker that will ultimately redraw the truth of the world!
