Soul-Suppressing Lantern: The Reincarnation Chessboard

Ling Xi, a servant at Kunlun Ruins, accidentally awakens the Soul-Suppressing Lantern, sealed with an ancient vengeful spirit, using her own blood. The Celestial Realm brands her the “Source of World Destruction,” and the God of War Mo Yuan hunts her down. While fleeing, Ling Xi discovers she can communicate with vengeful spirits, all of whom seem connected to the immortals who vanished during the War Between Immortals and Demons three hundred years ago.

As Mo Yuan pursues her, he gradually realizes that Ling Xi's existence seems mysteriously linked to the bloodstain on his left shoulder. The deeper they investigate, the more horrifying the truth becomes: the so-called “War Between Immortals and Demons” was a plot orchestrated by the Celestial Realm's upper ranks. To seize the ancient “Reincarnation Stone,” they slaughtered the spirit clan that guarded it and even tampered with the immortals' memories.

Worse still, Ling Xi's “Spirit-Devouring Body” was not something she was born with; it was caused by an immortal bone implanted in her by someone else. And Mo Yuan's “Fate-Cutting Sword” was forged from fragments of the Reincarnation Stone, with every swing accelerating the collapse of reincarnation across the Three Realms. When the two try to expose the truth, they discover they have long been pawns in a game of reincarnation, and the mastermind behind it all is none other than the “Creator God,” who should have perished long ago.

As the wheels of fate turn, Ling Xi must choose between “devouring all things” and “saving the Three Realms,” while Mo Yuan faces the ultimate choice between “protecting the Celestial Realm” and “overturning the rules.” As the truth of reincarnation is gradually laid bare, notions of good and evil, right and wrong, are twisted beyond recognition with each reversal.
