The spiritual energy of the Jiuxiao Realm is exhausted, and the order of the Three Realms collapses.
The Gate of Rebirth smuggles the reincarnation quota, the Mohist Yanjia devours the souls of living people, and the southern Xinjiang Gu master feeds the ancient gods with the flesh and blood of all people... The surface of the world of cultivation is surrounded by fairy energy, and monsters are rampant in the dark.
Gu Nanxing, a junior official in the Punishment Department, was thrown into death row for an unjust case of family extermination. When he was about to die, he awakened the ancient artifact "Heaven's Fate" and glimpsed the "causal afterimage" on the corpse that mortals could not see. From then on, he took over the power of yin and yang to judge the case as a mortal.
He dissects the body without a knife and lights a ghost lamp to illuminate the deceased's last moments of obsession;
He does not rely on confessions to investigate the case, but uses a nine-obsidian star chart on his finger to trace the truth of the case through the residual aura of the corpse.
From the "living corpse massacre case" controlled by witches in southern Xinjiang to the "serial murder case" tampered with by the underworld judge, every corpse is the key to uncovering the shocking conspiracy——
The shark totem at the bottom of the corpse's tongue involves the centuries-old blood contract between the royal family and the witch clan;
The broken souls in the terracotta warriors and puppets point to the Mohist forbidden technique of "moving souls and seizing bodies" to reappear in the world;
The three thousand human skins peeled off by the painted-skin demon actually pieced together the true appearance of the long-lost ancient gods...
