In the distant ancient past, the Three Enclosures and Twenty-Eight Mansions Grand Formation sealed countless evil Old Ones and prevented them from descending upon the world. But as time passed, the seal gradually weakened. The whispers of the ancient gods began to sound in cultivators’ ears as they underwent tribulation, and the true nature of spiritual energy was revealed: it was the blood of the ancient gods, and cultivators’ power came from a diluted, evil bloodline.
Lin Ye, a poor-born youth, awakens a strange eye technique and is admitted to the Tianshu Sword Sect as an exception. Unwittingly, he sets in motion the opening of an ancient calamity. The “Demon-Sealing Well” in the sect’s forbidden grounds suddenly changes, activating the dormant offspring of Cthulhu. Outer-sect disciples begin transforming into terrifying monsters, and some even hear whispers from the abyss.
Lin Ye is drawn into an abyssal conspiracy orchestrated by the Black Lotus Holy Temple, and discovers that he is on a path from which there is no turning back. The seals of the cultivation world are collapsing. The top cultivators of the Tianshu Sword Sect begin gathering their strength, preparing to use forbidden means to battle the evil gods. Amid this deadly tribulation, Lin Ye gradually uncovers the secret connection between himself and the cataclysm.
