Heaven's Abyssal Bone

Across the Eight Hundred Wastelands, the remnants of the Jiang clan guard a Broken Dragon Mine forgotten by the world. Three years ago, the Zhao Divine Dynasty colluded with a forbidden zone of life, carved the Nine Apertures Heavenly Abyss Bone from young Jiang Yuan, and stole the Imperial Fortune within it, using it to raise Zhao Jiuyou into the dynasty's foremost divine son. Jiang Yuan survived, but was afflicted with the Eternal Death Marrow Curse. Over the past three years, his marrow has turned to stone and his cultivation has been utterly destroyed. Now the deathly energy has reached his heart, and he has only thirty days to live. Just as the person who broke off their engagement arrives with experts from the Azure Cloud Sect to seize the contract and force his crippled father to his knees, Jiang Yuan uses the land deed as bait and leaps into the Broken Dragon Abyss. His blood awakens the Nine Tribulations Bronze Coffin, along with the white-robed female emperor Qing Li, who had severed her own cultivation to evade tribulation and hidden inside it. She tells him that the Death Marrow may not be a dead end. The hollowed-out space in his chest can become a Heavenly Abyss that devours Imperial Flame. From then on, Jiang Yuan uses the death curse as kindling and earth-fiend bonefire as fuel, reforging his body through one near-death bone-tempering trial after another as he embarks on a path of revenge and the pursuit of the Dao. He will reclaim the Imperial Fortune stolen from him, protect the few family members he has left, and uncover the secrets of the ages buried between his mother, the ancient coffin, and the Immortal Burial Abyss. From the Great Wilderness Martial Arena to the Northern Dark Heavenly Stairway, from Netherworld Coldfire to the Path to Heavenly Emperor, the young man will face sects hunting him down, hidden agents of holy lands, and the Eight Kings lying in ambush. When everyone believes that a ruined bone can do nothing but cling to life, Jiang Yuan stands at the end of the Imperial Path, knife in hand. "Zhao Jiuyou, you used my life to ascend to heaven. When I return, I'll take back every last thing you owe me, with interest..."
