Reality is on the verge of shattering, and I am the last living nail holding it together.
The Eroding Abyss has arrived, and reality is cracked like an eggshell. I’m Lu Xun, an unlucky man burdened by the “Pact of God Theft” and the last living array core in the world. I am both the final barrier sealing away calamity and the only key that can open the door to destruction.
My daily life? Fleeing from Eroding Abyss monsters, navigating the schemes of competing factions, and occasionally fighting the melodramatic fate of “sacrificing myself to save the world.”
Then the cold-faced menace Qin Ye showed up, pressed his Judge’s Brush to my throat, and said, “Want to live? Come with me.” That’s when I learned that my genius father, missing for years, had already planned an even crazier path for me: steal divine authority and, in an ordinary human body, become the very rules of the new world.
Silver blood in my left hand purifies all things; a brand in my right steals divine authority.
I devour the power of the Eroding Abyss, wield the edge of judgment, and seize the authority of the stars. The Abyss’s whispers murmur in my mind, while the karmic burden of judgment races through my veins. Every step takes me along the brink of losing control and being annihilated.
And my anchor is the stubborn yet softhearted scribe who always steps in front of me.
He says, “If you lose control, I’ll kill you.” But when I really start to slip into the abyss, it is always his bloodstained hand that catches me.
This is the desperate epic of a god-thief and a night watchman.
We make our pact in dire straits, stand together through betrayal, and at the end of the world, use ourselves as an array to launch one final rebellion against, and theft from, “God.”
