Ling Yun, a slave at a mine in the Northern Frontier, has a hidden star-orbit bloodline. The Mu Rong family tortures him with a branding iron to force a confession, then hunts him down. On the brink of death, he activates the star-core jade left behind by his mother, awakening the legacy of the star core and unexpectedly coming into contact with a fragment of the power of the void. He escapes the mortal realm and enters the spirit realm, where eternal night reigns. There he meets Su Qingyue, the holy maiden of the Void Cult, who has been slandered as an "evil fiend." Their fates become tightly bound by the truth that the star orbit and the void share the same origin: from testing each other as enemies on opposing sides of good and evil, to finding an unspoken understanding as they break through traps together in the star-orbit tomb, and then entrusting their lives to one another in the immortal realm to protect each other.
In the name of "upholding the Heavenly Dao," the Hall of the Celestial Venerables uses the Reincarnation Pool to extract the souls of living beings, rigidly enforcing the order of the star orbit and treating void spirits as heretics. Su Qingyue scatters her soul to protect Ling Yun, leaving behind only a wisp of her remnant soul entrusted to a fragment of the star-orbit key. To revive his beloved and break the shackles of the rules, Ling Yun joins the Alliance of Broken Orbits. He crosses the spirit realm's auroras, the immortal realm's gilded stairway to heaven, and the divine realm's star-cloud archipelago, gathering the fragments of the star-orbit key and uncovering the secret behind the schism of the ancient star-orbit civilization. The ultimate threat is not the Celestial Venerables, but a chaotic will seeking to devour all three realms.
In the end, Ling Yun fuses the star core with the power of the void and becomes the Lord of the Star Orbit. At the heart of chaos, he shatters the source of that will and rebuilds a new order for the three realms in which energy flows freely. Though he becomes a guardian of the rules, he still holds fast to his love for Su Qingyue. The two establish a sanctuary for guardians in the Fallen Star Abyss, where they watch their son Ling Chen take up the star-orbit key and head toward new threats at the edge of the universe. The duty of protection will never end.

What moved me most ❤️ about this book was the deep emotion contained in it. The love between Ling Yun and Su Qingyue transcended the distinction between good and evil. 👍 became more determined in the face of many hardships.

These themes give the novel a deeper connotation. It is not only a simple fantasy novel, but also a masterpiece that can arouse readers' emotional resonance and thinking.
