Story

Once again, within the Deca-Light Reflection Barrier, she watched as destiny intertwined like a shimmering web of pearls, reflecting and overlapping, with endless cause and effect. "What do you see?" Her master once asked her. Some diviners saw their own insignificance, and no longer believed that human effort could change destiny. Others saw the great tides of the future, following the flow to find optimal solutions. At that moment, the young girl gazed into the barrier, and saw boundless darkness. That is a future long predetermined. She also saw "starlight," the faint possibilities not yet devoured by the gods' gaze. That gleam of starlight once slipped through her fingers, leaving the Fanghu in eternal night. Yet she had also seized fleeting variables, flipping the Weal and Woe of the Yuque. "A dead end is called such only because none dare defy fate." She wanted to find her own answer, even if it meant stepping into destined peril. "What I see matters not. What matters is what I can do."

How to read this Light Cone page

Every Light Cone has exactly one passive effect tied to the wielder's combat performance; that effect scales up as you Superimpose it from S1 to S5 — use the S1-S5 buttons above to see the exact numbers at each level instead of guessing or interpolating. A Light Cone only delivers its full value on a character who shares its Path; "Characters who use this cone" lists every character on that Path, while "Best users" is a narrower list pulled from real build consensus, not a guess.

Base stats (HP/ATK/DEF) are shown at Lv80 for every cone of the same rarity so they can be compared directly; a 5-star cone will always edge out 4-star and 3-star ones here — the real difference lives in the passive effect, not the flat stats. The "Alternative cones on the same Path" section suggests a few other options if you do not own the signature cone yet, or want to compare before spending ascension materials.
