Things are heating up in Dinghai Fusheng Records.
Seven Seas opened the new year with a new danmei cover reveal. The publisher unveiled the fourth volume cover of Dinghai Fusheng Records as designed by 苍顾行. Hand covering one of his eyes while the other holds the heart lamp with a man sitting in there, Xiang Shu stands at the forefront. The cover is a mix of dark gray and gold-and-red flames that surround . The translation is handled by moon, Elestrea, and Zryuu.
Written by Arise Zhang, also known as Fei Tian Ye Xiang, Dinghai Fusheng Records was first published on JJWXC in 2019 and spans 138 chapters. The series has inspired an audio drama adaptation that was released in January 2020 and a manhua adaptation in July 2020. Dinghai Fusheng Records has also been adapted into a donghua called Epic of Divinity Light with 12 episodes.
The story follows the last exorcist named Chen Xing who must prevent an impending apocalypse. But he can’t do it alone and, using his heart lamp, he seeks out his Protector who is destined to fight by his side. Unfortunately, his heart lamp picks a stranger named Xiang Shu who wants no business in saving the world.
Volume 4’s synopsis is as follows:
As the northern emperor Fu Jian prepares to march on the south with an army of the undead, Chen Xing and his ragtag team of exorcists make one final, desperate attempt to convince him to reconsider. But even if Fu Jian abandons his unwitting alliance with the forces of darkness, that will only delay the plans of the Demon God Chiyou, not bring them to an end—and Chen Xing is no closer to solving the mystery of the Dinghai Pearl and releasing the Spiritual Qi of the Heavens and Earth, without which he knows they have no chance of defeating their ultimate foe. Xiang Shu, meanwhile, makes a drastic decision to solve what to him is the more pressing problem: Chen Xing’s imminent, fated death. Other forces are at work here, though, than the exorcists and their enemies, and when the pivotal moment arrives, nothing goes as either Xiang Shu or Chen Xing could possibly have planned…
Vol. 4 of Dinghai Fusheng Records will release on April 28. The manhua has also been licensed by Seven Seas.
