Deep in Longhu Mountain, a thousand-year-old Taoist temple crumbled into ruins overnight, and every talisman seal failed. At the same time, paranormal incidents broke out across the country: corpses in ancient tombs came back to life, wronged spirits from a century ago appeared, and the statues in City God temples wept...
The legendary Ghost King, sealed away for a thousand years, was on the verge of awakening, and the Taoist sects no longer had the power to suppress it.
The protagonist is the last heir of Longhu Mountain's evil-suppression lineage, sent down the mountain by his master to investigate. He discovers that this is more than a strange upheaval caused by the decline of spiritual energy: it is a conspiracy hidden for a thousand years.
