The Spirit-Devouring Abyss is the deepest prison for condemned criminals in the Six Realms. Great offenders are locked away within, while beasts of chaos prowl beyond its perimeter. Everyone stays far away, yet it was here that a fearless boy named Li Wuyou grew up.
He is the only innocent person born in the Abyssal Realm in a thousand years. From childhood, he has mastered an extraordinary ability: using another person’s natal object as a medium, he can gather spiritual energy into a shadow and share cultivation and supernatural abilities. When cracks spread through the seals and the tide of chaos drew near, three guardian goddesses turned to stone to buy him three hundred days.
The boy leaves the dead abyss with sword in hand, venturing into demon tombs, descending to the underworld, crossing the demon realm, and traversing the spirit frontier. Along the way, he gathers extraordinary allies, breaks deadly impasses, and uncovers hidden truths. Every encounter and bond becomes a piece on the board in his hands. On this journey beyond the abyss, he will upend a game that has lasted ten thousand years and fight for justice on his own terms.
