Background of the times:
In the near future of 2035, in the era of "spiritual awakening" where technology and metaphysics coexist, there is an undercurrent of "spiritual recovery" around the world, and the cultivation talents hidden in human genes are activated.
Longyuan City - the place where the dragon veins of a thousand-year dynasty are buried. On the surface is a cyberpunk-style super city, and underground is a black market of cultivation controlled by the "Nine Xuanmen Families". Traffic policemen with swords dance with drones on the rooftops of skyscrapers, and the last subway train goes directly to the ghost land of Fengdu.
Revenge × Suspense × Machiavellian
Revenge: The male protagonist Jiang Jin witnessed the whole family of the "Xuanmen Jiang Family" being transformed into corpse puppets when he was young. Ten years later, he returned disguised as a useless Feng Shui master. He holds the ancestral compass "Burial Dragon Pivot" in his left hand and hides the AI weapon spirit "Zhu Jiuyin" in his right hand, specializing in fishing for weaknesses in his enemies.
Suspense: "Spiritual Qi Exhaustion Disease" broke out one after another in Longyuan City, and the rich and powerful were reduced to mummies overnight. Jiang Jin used the excuse of solving the case to tear open the hypocritical masks of the "Nine Xuanmen Families" and discovered that they actually used the souls of mortals to feed the ancient beast [Chaofeng].
Fantasy setting: Cultivators rely on "tribulation crystal" implants to perform spells, but the robbery crystal is actually the egg of a ferocious beast. The more hosts it devours, the closer it gets to the truth of "revival of spiritual energy" - it is actually a civilization screening game before the destruction of the ferocious beast.
Romance subplot: Jiang Jin and the young mistress of the Ji family, the head of the "Nine Families". Ji Chenyu is both friend and foe. She was forced to become a container for "Mocking Wind" in order to save the lives of her people. The two of them formed a life-and-death contract in the conspiracy and jointly explored the way of "killing gods and changing lives".
