Ye Xingming opened his eyes to find every bone in his body shattered, and himself in a school infirmary in another world.
His noble “brother,” Wang Gang, wore a fake smile. The maid Rou’er was inscrutable, and a bowl of “tonic soup” concealed deadly danger.
Worse still, two “tenants” lived inside his mind: the lingering soul of a frail, mysterious old man, and a cold, violent will of destruction known only as “her.”
In this floating world of towering magical spires and dazzling magitech, Ye Xingming is trapped. Knowledge is locked away, his power coveted, and every step takes him along a knife’s edge. His only support is the unfathomable power of resonance, which stirs the paths of the stars.
But the first glimpse of a star path is cut short by Stillwell’s jealous interference; the faintest spark of starlight brings Lin Nuoxue’s deadly pursuit. Even Rou’er, who protects him, covets his worth.
Terror in the Lower City, the brand of the Starbone Wall, a plunge into the Abyssal Rift… A nonhuman eye opens in the darkness, and a bloodstained star path is etched onto his right arm.
The abyss is a furnace, and pain is its fuel. He is no pawn. He is the “fire thief” who will kindle the stars!
Watch Ye Xingming, caught between powerful factions, forge his own bloodstained path among the stars in the abyssal furnace, using pain as his hammer and the abyss as his forge!
