For a thousand years, a solitary shadow has walked among mortals. Zhao Lingxi, the foremost master of the mystic arts, possesses secret techniques passed down directly from Zhang Daoling and carries a gold-trimmed red-bone umbrella that conceals the secrets of Heaven. She is both Jiangcheng’s wealthiest tycoon and a deliverer of souls in the dark. Though versed in all five mystic arts, she cannot break through the barrier to ascension. That is, until she breaks open a seal beneath a skyscraper and encounters Huo Qubing, a ghost king overflowing with baleful energy. This Western Han war god stole a treasure of the underworld, and the Book of Life and Death and the judge’s brush hold secrets of the Three Realms. Forced to form a soul pact, the two join forces with Wu Zhao, the Tang empress incarnate and a brilliant strategist, and Yang Yuhuan, a peerless beauty, to face a crisis at the border between Yin and Yang. When a thousand-year-old obsession meets an undying ghost king, will their struggle across time lead to the merit and fulfillment needed for ascension, or is it yet another tribulation laid out by Heaven’s will?
