The blood moon splits the sky, and the dragon veins cry.
Xu Wenwei traveled to another world and took charge of the Dragon Kingdom's Horror General Bureau, but was deeply involved in the Red Moon Conspiracy - the thirteen designers of the Temple of Supreme Harmony mysteriously disappeared twenty years ago. The Blood Tai Chi in Kowloon Walled City, the bronze tripod at the bottom of the Huangpu River, and the Hundred Infants Talisman Array in Yerengou all point to a shocking scam that spans Yin and Yang.
When substitute designer Lin Xi tore open the crescent moon birthmark on the back of her neck, the cold bronze light of the heart-eating lock penetrated the forty-year fog:
Chu Renmei's blood-stained opera robe hides the Fengdu ghost city sealed by the Forbidden City;
The silver bell of Miaojiang Gu Po contains ninety-nine dragon-suppressing souls;
Each faded talisman on the hanging coffin in Yizhuang is engraved with the birth date of her tragic death in reincarnation.
The talisman keeper wearing a raincoat walked out from the shadow of the cave, with nine bronze talismans stuck in his rotten chest;
The medicine girl whose heart was dissected alive, the indigo spell swimming under the skin was the blood letter carved into her mother's womb;
Xu Wenwei's corpse, suspended in the Hundred Thousand Blood Talisman, was holding half of the Heart-Eating Lock and grinning:
"Good disciple, do you think you are the one who breaks the situation? It's just the last heart-eating talisman that I have been raising for forty years!"
When the dragon's veins turned into a giant python that swallowed the sky, and the blood talisman condensed into a cage that imprisoned the world, Lin Xi used a silver hairpin to gouge out his heart and use it as ink, and carved a forbidden curse against the sky on Broken Dragon Cliff:
** Use soul to feed the lock, use life to burn the talisman. **
In this game of chess played by everyone, the chess player and the chess pieces are separated by a blood-stained river of reincarnation.
