No. You cannot activate a card in the middle of resolving another effect. The Chain is,
(You haven't discarded yet, since "Beckoning Light" discards as an effect. Right now, you only have 28 cards in your Graveyard, so you can't activate "Blasting the Ruins".)
(resolve)
  • Chain Link 1: You discard your hand. [Right now, you are in the middle of resolving an effect, so you can't activate "Blasting the Ruins".] Then, you add cards to your hand.
After the Chain resolves, you only have 29 cards in your Graveyard (the 28 previous ones + "Beckoning Light"), so you can't activate "Blasting the Ruins".
Also, remember to sign your posts with four tildes ~~~~, since that automatically creates a signature for you.
