I Returned from the Abyss and Inherited the Lost Emberfire

After the young Lin Qiu is forced to inherit an ancient flame called "Emberfire," he journeys from being a mountain herb gatherer into a vast world stretching across the Eastern Sea and the Northern Frontier, beyond even the Divine Realm. Emberfire came from a star that fell three thousand years ago, carrying the ultimate secret of the forebears and the gods beneath the dome of heaven. As Lin Qiu searches for the flame, bears it, and transforms into it, he endures sect assassinations, clashes across sea and land, secret-realm trials, and the maneuverings of rival powers. At last, standing on the boundary between humanity and the divine, he must make a choice that will determine the fate of the entire land: become the flame itself, or kindle a prairie fire with a mortal body.
