On the night of the overthrow of the dynasty, Xiao Ce, the prince of the northern border, crawled out of the sea of blood from the corpse mountain with a blood feud that destroyed his family and a mysterious bone pendant. Little did he know that he had become the most critical "live item" in the world's chess game.
The Queen Mother lowered her curtains, the aristocratic families were divided, the barbarians knocked on the gates, and the rivers and lakes were undercurrent. In this murderous nine realms, Xiao Ce struggled for revenge, but step by step he uncovered shocking secrets: the bone pendant on his chest was actually one of the "keys" that unlocked the ultimate authority of the ancient "Xingcha Civilization"; the power of the "Witch Spirit" in his body was both a gift and a curse; and his bloodline was burdened with the heavy destiny of sealing "spiritual erosion" and guarding the balance of this world.
From the beacon fire in the north to the bloody rain in Jinling, from the natural moat of the Shu Road to the starfall in the East China Sea, from the Gu fog in the southern border to the Buddha's light in the West... Xiao Ce forges ahead in the whirlpool of intrigue, bravery and mysterious power. He is not only a lone wolf with a sword for revenge, but also the "key" in the game between all parties, the "variable" in the ancient prophecy, and the "container" that must be controlled or eliminated in the eyes of the mastermind behind the scenes.
When he collects the six "Keys of Origin" scattered across the nine realms and faces the truth behind the "Star Key Door", will he become the "Destined Witch Lord" who saves the common people, or will he become the "Source of Disaster" that destroys everything?
This world is both a chess game and an altar. And he wants to be the one who overturns the chessboard and redefines the rules.
Reader comments
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ After the embers, there must be a new fire, happy ending! I finally finished reading the final chapter of Chapter 104, "Embers and New Fires", and I couldn't calm down for a long time. This book is not only a power struggle, but also a sense of power in finding light in the darkness. From the mystery of "Yuehua Courtyard" to the life and death line of "Scavenger Agreement", the protagonist's growth line is very clear and touching. Although I feel a bit reluctant to end it, the ending is both unexpected and reasonable, giving people a feeling of hope. Thanks to the author for such a great story, looking forward to the new book!
This is a cool novel that welds together the chaotic world of power and the secrets of ancient civilization - Xiao Ce, the prince of the North, climbed out of the sea of blood from the mountain of corpses. He thought he was just avenging his family's annihilation, but he was dragged into the "world chess game" step by step. The bone drop on his chest is the key to the Xingcha civilization, the witch spirit in his body is both a curse and a gift, and his bloodline carries the fate of sealing spiritual erosion. The line of revenge has been directly upgraded to a "civilization-level" fateful showdown. I really like [flying kiss][flying kiss][flying kiss]
At first I thought it was another bad plot novel, but as I read it, it turned into fantasy, with all kinds of magic; as I watched various characters die casually, they really have the right to play that way; as I watched it, it also involved ancient legends, my god it's so beautiful
The opening chapter, with the tragic death of a loyal soul, completes the three critical blows of character creation, worldview foreshadowing and suspense setting: it has the heavy pathos of traditional Machiavellian novels, the fateful mystery of fantasy novels, and the passionate ignition of young revenge. Xiao Ce's "cold blood oath" is not only a consolation for the family, but also a declaration of war against the decadent dynasty - when the sword holder holds the key to fate, this chess game will eventually be completely overturned by him.
Comparable to A Song of Ice and Fire, expected and unexpected
The story is wonderful, the details are in place, it makes people feel like painting, and it is very attractive. The protagonist's character is likeable, the plot advances layer by layer, and the twists and turns are surprising. Continue reading after the update!
This book is full of excitement, with a large number of "instant killer", "one man becomes an army" battle scenes, and plots of "taking advantage of powerful people", which is very consistent with the definition of "refreshing writing".
It's so good to watch that you can't stop watching it. The plot is compact and not procrastinating. There are many foreshadowings that make people think. The subsequent development will definitely become more and more mysterious.
It's good, but the paragraphs are too long in some places. It would be better to pay attention to the paragraphs.
Looking back, the plot is pretty good
The author writes so well, the writing is smooth and beautiful.
I can't stop watching it. It's so exciting. It's highly recommended.
Wow, I haven't seen such a wonderful novel in a long time. The author's writing is good, the content is clear and easy to understand, and the characters are vivid. Worth recommending

It's well written and the characters are well drawn.
