To save his terminally ill younger sister, Lin Jin, a boy from a coffin shop, steals a forbidden Ember Bone and becomes a “Bone Devourer,” rejected by the Heavenly Dao. With every bone he devours, he inherits the deceased’s peak combat power for ten minutes! His hair turns white as frost, his left arm petrifies, and he bears the Curse of the Ember Tribulation as he fights across the heavens: slaying demon emperors, summoning sword immortals and calling forth the Netherworld King. Yet in fragments of memory, he catches a glimpse of a shocking deception!
It turns out that the reincarnation of all living beings is nothing but a cultivation scheme in an ocean of embers, and he himself is a human-shaped key in an ancient game of chess.
As world-devouring worms chew through three thousand worlds, and the Throne of Eternal Silence fills with the skulls of his past lives, Lin Jin laughs and detonates a hundred thousand Ember Bones. “Who says those who steal fire are doomed to become demons? I’ll use these ashes to burn through the lies of reincarnation!”
I devour not bones, but the unfinished roars of all living beings!
