When the city’s neon lights begin floating upward against gravity, and human shadows develop murderous intent beneath the moonlight… Chen Yuan knows that the “surface” of this world is starting to crack.
As a restorer of ancient books, he thought he would spend his life among dusty old volumes. But an eerie restoration assignment forces him to open his eyes.
He sees cracks in the collapsing skyscrapers, feels the trajectories of all things falling, and can even wield the power of gravity in the palm of his hand.
As the world crumbles, the ancient organization the Imperial Observatory presents him with a bloodstained calling card. The forbidden society known as the Gravediggers whispers the truth about his ancestors in his ear.
Within him coexists a shadow of the laws from the sky of eternal night. In his mind echoes the maddening knowledge of higher-dimensional beings.
In this age of spreading madness, some choose to seal the heavens, while others yearn to ascend to godhood. Chen Yuan holds gravity in his hand like a thread, standing at the edge of an abyss thousands of feet deep. Facing every being that seeks to overturn reality, he declares calmly:
“I am the boundary. I am the cliff. All who trespass against the laws, no matter which heaven they come from, shall fall to their deaths before me.”
