Three thousand years ago, the Nine Nether Realm opened, and the evil spirit soared into the sky like a black dragon, causing rivers to hang upside down wherever they passed. The three tribes of Shenshang, Xuanniao Jiuhu, and Extreme North Snow Wolf gathered the power of star stones, used the Big Dipper as their swords, and Yinghuo as their blades, and formed a star formation around the sky to suppress the Nine Nether Evil Dragons under the Xuanbing Abyss.
However, the Jiuyou Demon transformed into a spirit body and mixed it into the Xuantian Sword forged by the Ginseng Department. It led the Ginshang leaders in the past generations and made the three major tribes attack each other and become suspicious of each other. In the final battle, the remaining martyrs of the three tribes burned their natal souls and activated the light of the Ziwei Star Stone to seal Jiuyou again.
Over the past seven hundred years, the Spring and Autumn Period has passed. The stargazing technique of the Ministry of Commerce and Industry has become a secret technique of the imperial court, the Jiuhu Shenmu Forest has become a forbidden area for woodcutter, and the Snow Wolf Ice Soul Technique has become a legend among teahouse storytellers.
Only in the Xuanbing Abyss every year, the muffled sound of chains shaking can still be heard - on top of the three clans' sacred weapons, the outline of the first petal of the nine-petaled lotus totem is quietly emerging.
And Zhao Qingming also broke into the world at this time...
