Geological prospector Luo Yi returned to his hometown to investigate the changes in the Sanggan River, but saw the villagers petrified one after another. The Pisces jade pendant left behind when she was young turned into ancient blood amber after coming into contact with the blood river, revealing her destiny of being reincarnated as a Cangming priest. The thousand-year-old river demon revived with modern engineering, and the nine-headed snake body stirred up the underworld, but the nine tripods that suppressed it were actually made of the bones and blood of priests from past generations.
Riverkeeper Xuan Xiao appears with a tortoise shell compass. This mysterious man with a demonized right arm is both a guide and a monitor. The appearance of the Twin Blood Amber caused the collapse of time and space, and Luo Yi struggled between the memory of the present world and the ancient times: the wailing of a hundred thousand resentful souls in the bronze cauldron, the reversal spell left by his mother, and his body that gradually transformed into water spirit - when the magical weapon that suppresses evil spirits is itself the cruelest curse, is the price of protecting the common people destined to be eternal loneliness?
From the broken Monument of King Yu at the bottom of the Sanggan River to the Jiuding Matrix in the quantum collider, a redemption spanning three thousand years passes through the fog of cause and effect. When the river demon reveals the true appearance of the young King Yu, and when the Yellow River turns into the eye of ruin that devours civilization, Luo Yi finally has to face the bloody truth: the so-called disaster of the river demon is just a reflection of the inner demons that humans fear.
