Qin Jin, a good-for-nothing disciple cast out by his sect, falls into the forbidden ruins known as the God-Burying Wastes. There, he unexpectedly awakens the inheritance of Xuan Xiao, an ancient Immortal Emperor whose remnant soul lives on, and the Heaven-Burning Bone Meridians within him reverse life and death. Luo Zhao, once a prodigy of the sword, protects him with her broken sword and secretly helps him unlock the Immortal Emperor’s hidden records. Mo Yan, a soul-devouring artifact spirit, sometimes guides him and sometimes tries to seize his soul. Su Yuli, his childhood friend, uses a blood key to expose a thousand-year conspiracy within the sect. And the Great Elder Lu Wuju is the true culprit who murdered his master and stole his position all those years ago. As the Immortal Emperor’s bones reignite, the Tianyuan Sect, the Nine Nether Sect, and the Rogue Cultivators’ Alliance all hunt him down. Qin Jin is no longer a good-for-nothing. He is a spark the world ground into the dirt, and this time, he will burn the entire firmament to ash.
