Emberfire, Return to the Void

An ancient Immortal King was ambushed and slain. A fragment of his soul was reincarnated as Yan, an unremarkable boy from the Zhuge family of Zhongzhou. Buried beneath the passage of ten thousand years lies a conspiracy: Sima Lie, patriarch of the Sima clan, covets the source of all creation and seeks to devour the spiritual essence of the Five Continents, bringing the world to ruin with his half-immortal body. Bearing the memories of his past life and a blood feud, Yan bides his time and lays his plans amid the undercurrents of the great clans. He establishes six major factions, ventures through the secret realms of the Five Continents, seeks treasures, and awakens the ancient divine guards, gradually tearing away the truth of what happened ten thousand years ago. When ember flames consume the land and the rifts of Guixu rend the heavens and earth, the boy sheds the shell of reincarnation and ascends once more to the throne of the Immortal King. He makes protecting all living beings his path, ends the age of chaos, and establishes a new order for heaven and earth.
