I Am the Furnace, and the Furnace Is Me

1. World Setting:

A parallel Earth in the near future, with technology slightly more advanced than today’s. A hundred years ago, inexplicable “dimensional rifts” suddenly appeared around the world, bringing forth monstrous beasts and miasma. Martial arts are not ancient martial arts, but “genetic martial arts” awakened by humanity to fight the miasma and absorb the genes of monstrous beasts. Technology and martial arts coexist, and martial artists hold the highest status. The monstrous beasts are merely the vanguard. Behind the rifts lies an entire high-martial alternate world, drawing ever closer. Earth is the last line of defense. Humanity’s ultimate enemy is another civilization.

2. Power System

· Martial Artist Realm → Transcendent Realm → Saint Realm → Divine Domain Realm (each major realm has nine ranks)

· Genetic Locks: Everyone has a “genetic lock” within their body. Awakening it grants a core supernatural ability, which serves as a foundation for fusing monstrous-beast genes and refining one’s martial arts.

· High-M martial arts: Those in the Saint Realm can cross the universe with their bare bodies and shatter stars with a punch; those in the Divine Domain Realm can create laws and bring all things into being or destroy them with a single thought.

3. The Protagonist’s Golden Finger

· “Infinite Furnace” System/Ability:

· Ability 1, Devouring and Refining: Can absorb 100% of the strongest genetic ability of any monstrous beast or enemy killed, then refine it into the user’s own system with no side effects.

· Ability 2, Infinite Deduction: By consuming energy, can deduce any martial technique or supernatural ability to perfection at the divine level, and even combine abilities to create new ones.
